Preferably with a 1" center hole, but if it has a 1/4" center hole, I can cut a 1" hole with a hole saw. Anybody know of a good online source for something like this?

Like this, but I need it to be smaller, and I don't need the rest. https://www.pennstateind.com/store/LCMPLUS.html I made one for my old lathe out of 1/4" masonite, and it actually worked well. I thought aluminum would be better.
