I cut the brake drum by drilling a series of holes through the cast iron rim. These holes were touching next to each other, like the perforations on a postage stamp, so that I could carefully chip off the piece by tapping it with a hammer - until it cracked. The edges were then ground smooth with an angle grinder. There is a flat steel disc mounted to the wheel stud holes, which then has the air pipe coming in through the bottom.

That surely exceeds the test results done by Mike Loades for the Weapon's that built Britain.
With S. Stratton doing them they'd chew through Milanese plate like cloth! :)
