What would likely be the cheapest way to have a basic beveled edge disk created? Lathe?

What sort of equipment would be required to drill a hole 30mm dia? I've got a small drill press. I'm guessing that a hole that big might tax a small press. And then there's the matter of the tapping of the hole. It seems that for most of the taps that I can find that are 30mm are for much coarser threads.

I'll consider getting the thing made part of the challenge.

Thanks again.

I'm surprised that there's that much setup required. I guess I always thought that you just plugged a file and a blank into the machine and it spit out a part. Too bad where I work doesn't have a bit more of a full featured shop. I think they've got a brake and a couple of other things, but nothing appropriate for this sort of project. I'll double check with the guy that works there.

Thanks again.
