Default Paxolin Disks

Has anybody got any hints or tips on how to accurately cut disks from thin paxolin, accurately circular with smooth edges?

I have a dozen or more Colvern wirewound potentiometers with bakelite bodies which should have a paxolin disk back glued in place into a rebate in the bakelite. Unfortunately over time the glue has failed and the backs have gone AWOL.

Depending on the power rating the disks need to be from about 1.25 to 1.75 inches in diameter.

Any ideas welcome, please!

Many thanks,

Andy
