The problem is that if you are going to lathe a rotor, you WANT to lathe the
rotor using its hub directly into the lathe.
If you simply machine a disk, and then install the hub, you're still likely
to have a "wobbly" hub.

Anyways, you can get raw material from:

LE or CE Phenolic (Brand name Garolite) works well and is probably cheaper
than G10.
