Great advice on making an indent all around the disk. Now..I am counting the days, hours, mintues until I get home next week

If anyone tried the F5000 (with and without the dampening material) and F5005 I would love to hear their feedback here.

And using a screwdriver to indent it all around makes it hold much tighter than just pressing with your finger.
