Now that the ring is mild steel, why not machine the chamfer for the skateboard wheels directly in to the ring and do away with the aluminium rings? It saves time, money and complexity, plus setting up the milling job will be almost the same.
Although its not shown in the rendering, the aluminium rings are actually multiple pieces. Which means we can do it on our small cnc 300x300mm. So we can't fit the mild steel ring into it.
