I’d usually just go into the shop and measure something like this, but I’m on vacation and I’m doing some time-sensitive CAD.
Does anyone remember the height of a stack of four nested frisbees? We want to know how high they’ll sit in a hopper to a fair degree of accuracy.

Off the top of my head, the 1.25" per disc gets you to 5", but if I remember right, 4.5" was tall enough for our bucket hopper.
If you had a CAD of a frisbee, you could stack them in inventor and find out.

But each frisbee sits inside each other when stacked.

Well, I walked down to the shop and nested 4 frisbees as nicely as I could, and measured 103mm to the crown of the top frisbee. YMMV (albeit slightly).
Thank you! That was exactly what I was looking for.
