I have a RAMAC platter.
(24" diameter; arguably FIRST hard disk, from 1958?; when they wouldn't
let Nikita Krushchev into Disneyland, they took him to the IBM factory,
instead.)
It has enough damage to no longer be usable in a drive.
I have a round patio table base.
I still need a 2 foot round piece of [UV absorbing?] [tempered?] glass.
