Thank you gentlemen.
I cut out some 1/8 stainless somewhat larger than I needed to play it safe.
This is a 3 piece spacer except for the thin coined spacer.
I made the two outside layers the same size by temporarily pinning them together to shape them. Then slipped the middle one in between those and pinned them. Then I ground it about 1/8 larger than the outside ones. Then I sawed into it on a regular spacing all the way around. I rounded all of the corners and edges.
I bolt it together and file the threaded rod flush with the nuts.
I hold it In the vise like it is in my fingers.
By holding it that way I can keep from scarring the outside spacers and put added pressure on the spacers. There is also alignment pins connecting the three layers so they wont move.
I then use a torch to isolate heat onto the bumps and peen them down.
Now I can disassemble it and clean it up.
