Tracey Not wanting to jump on the worry you band wagon, but I am a safety manager for a large non destructive testing company and have seen first hand how catastrophic a pressure vessel failure can be. My reccomendation on this type of closure would be to cut or have cut a 1/2" to 1" plate that...

I have found that facing the 9" platen on my KMG disc grinder with cork gasket material (Auto parts store I use felpro brand) eliminates chatter and give a much more even finish. I applied it with 3M #7 glue, then glue my paper on with the cheap ($2) craft spray adheasive in the arts and crafts...
