I'd make a jig to bolt face to and some to clamp rim edges down onto a perfect flat thick steel table, Which you should have. Make sure runout is minimum/perfect otherwise you may run into drama's balancing from being buckled. Keep the jig, And do more on the side

Offroad_Solutions has done a few sets for me as well as lots for other people. He doesn't use a jig, just a lathe and a big hammer. |
