Hi,
I need a Gorf dust disk and although TOG has them, the $18 shipping is a bit much. I attempted to contact Kendra+Rich but after a week or so, I gave up and will just fabricate one myself.
That leads to the question:

Would anyone know the diameter of this disk?

Thanks in advance
Jeff
 
I'm not sure that is exactly what it is called but it is the round black plastic disk that sits between the J/S and the metal panel and prevents dirt and debris from falling into the J/S mechanism. I could just guess on the size but if someone has one available and is willing to measure, I would appreciate it.
Thanks
 
Done

OK, I experimented a bit and came up with the perfect solution:

1 X 1" hole saw
1 X 3-1/2" hole saw
1 X old plastic monitor surround

After a little clean up, came out great and will assemble once I receive the new bump stop from Stephen but dry run looks good.....

Yes, it looks good and seems not to interfere with the existing hardware but I won't know for sure until I assemble and test, but I think it will work.....
Thanks
