I remember years ago checking out some of the stores in Chinatown in NY. One place had this great ball-bearing turntable in the section that sold dishes and restaurant supplies. It was an aluminum bearing housing for a lazy-susan thing meant for a dining table. It was about 2 ft. in diameter and looked to be quite well made. I don't recall the price, but it was certainly reasonable compared to milling something from plate. maybe $50. That grocery store is still there, on Pell St, 1/2 way between Doyers and Bowery, on the south side of the street. Second floor has all kinds of interesting stuff. Think out of the box.
