    The diameter is 17mm with a step at the edge. Want to do some experimenting with different custom elements for a different style of shooting.

    I make my own, just use a small one and then take it out to the size you require, I use a countersink bit, and twiddle it by hand, so I can carefully get the element size I want, and measure it with a vernier. With plastic ones by coming from both sides you can vary the thickness as well.

    I also do the same with metal elements, and just a dust of matt black spray after.
