Default Re: Paxolin Disks

I recently did exactly this to make a new back for one of my Colvern pots. I marked the circle I wanted on the paxolin using a compass, rough-cut it out with a hacksaw and hand-filed it circular. If had wanted to do 12 it would probably have been worth making jigs and support pieces and/or drilling holes then filling them again and/or rooting out my hot-melt glue sticks. But to do just one took perhaps 15 mins with the compass, hacksaw and file and ended up a very neat precise fit (I kept checking the size against the actual pot as I was carrying out the job).

Cheers,

GJ
