Re: noob laser question

Hi guys,

thank you for your answers, my question - can I use a lathe cut tool
to make this balance ( so I can avoid buying and using that laser )? I
intend to balance the disc ( which has a shaft in the center ) by
suspending it on a ball bearing connected with 3 springs at 120 grads
perpendicular on the axis of rotation. I hope this is a correct way to
balance it... the disc should go up to 30000 rpm - can I do it without
the laser?
