- Good points. My disks are quite brittle, but they seem to hold together
- ok in this application. Also, to drill the hole the disk must be sandwiched
- firmly between two pieces of something (wood). Mine slipped a bit so the
- holes are not exactly on center, but it's good enough. Also, it's hard on the
- drill bit since the disks dull the main cutting surface. I was desperate
- though.
