Make your own $15 shrinking disc

I have been looking for a shrinking disc for some sheet metal work, but as I live in Sweden I wasn´t able to locate a retailer selling this stuff in Sweden and I really didn´t want to spend $80-$100 and have it shipped from the states incl shipping, taxes and stuff. But the other day I was at IKEA and passed thru their kitchen ware department and saw this....



and I did´t see a saucepan, I saw a shrinking disc......

the saucepan was about $10

Bought a support disc for the angle grinder at a hardware store for another $5.

And some light fabrication, this is what I ended up with.
