Whilst building one of my mounts..instead of using teflon..I made up some pads from an old nylon chopping board..to make them fit a bit better against the hub..(in the "V" cutout) I shaped them by holding a piece of 800 grade wet and dry around an old paint can near the same diameter as the hub then gently sand the pad in one direction around the tin..after say 20-30 strokes see how it fits against the hub..drill a countersunk hole and give each pad another 5 strokes..( to get rid of any burrs).. clean them with some metho and they're ready!
Cheers!
