The ones at the link in post #4 above by Yesnaby seem to fit the bill perfectly.

I've got a lathe, routers, bandsaws, and acrylic sheet, but I wouldn't dream of faffing about to make a disc, given that I could get a laser-cut perfectly round 14cm disc (or any other diameter) for a little over £3.00 post free. There are other suppliers on eBay who can supply more of less any sized acrylic disc in any colour, in a wide range of thicknesses for little cost.

No need to even get off the chair - two mouse clicks and it's on it's way!

Why look for complex solutions to simple problems?
