    Jeremy,

    I think you would want to 3D print them with the hole in. I think trying to drill the hole after printing would be frustrating unless you can get them really cold so they lose their compliance but better still maybe to make a round knife cutter and trying that rotating slowly with water as a lube. I've cut plenty of discs and a few other shapes with knife cutters and various sorts...

    David,
    Wow. Thank you for taking the time and trouble to write it all down and explain what's involved. It's far from the straightforward projects shown on some YouTube/Instagram shorts. There's a lot to learn.
    Many YouTube videos to watch I think.
    I've reread your post a couple of times and apart from showing my total ignorance on the subject, I was thinking it may be slightly easier...

    i fitted poly bushes all round and the ride improved a lot more planted ,I got sick of the rubber ones becoming a service item changing them every year or so.

    Jeremy,

    I'm by no means proficient at 3D modelling but a tophat bush is quite basic. The software I use is FreeCAD for the modelling and Cura for the slicing, both are Linux/Mac/Windows. I get what I need done and refer to online FreeCAD tutorials as required, plenty on Youtube, some of the stuff they show just loses me as it seems to go so quickly and some of the techniques they use, con...

    Its a bit late for Starmer to refuse to let the US use British bases to bomb Iran. They may not have left here on a mission but all of Lakenheaths F15s have left for the region and a dozen F22s have this week overnighted there on their way out there too and both have been supported by Mildenhall tankers.

    If they want to use Fairford for heavy bombers I dont see how he can stop them as a...

    🤣🤣🤣.

    We'll need a good laugh soon, as Trump's not far off bombarding the mad mullahs of Iran. They in turn will block the straits of hormuz, or attempt to. They blocked a section of it temporarily a few days ago, as 'military excercise' aka a warning to Trump. Watch the global markets tank if it is properly blocked.

    Starmer meanwhile, is reportedly refusing permission fo...

    I had a similar experience last year when I came out from shopping and found a Porsche 911 turbo parked next to my Passat, I had seem them before but hadn't appreciated how small they were compared to some moderns and the Passat is 21 years old now.

    misconduct in public office.

    A lot of porridge if convicted.

    If he is, so too should Mandy be.
