    yes but I need the hole to be 3 inches wide. it doesn't matter about the edge. will probably end up making up my own ones

    I sure have. I've been dealing with them on and off over the last 20 years. If they don't stock it, they can usually order it for you or at least know of who else might have it.

    Would a flat plate and a good 3" hole saw in a pillar drill work for you?
