Disc profile drawings

Wouldn't it be nice if there were a library of disc profile drawings?

I'm talking about every disc ever made, all to scale, not photos, but technical drawings. And a way to match discs up to compare them - nose to nose, and on top of each other in different colors.
 
Probably, but the lack of manufacturing consistency makes it hard to get a representative drawing for any disc. The tech specs won't match what you're actually getting.
 
The problem with this is that the same disc can have a diff profiles. One can be domey as hell one can be flat one can have a high PLH or lower PLH.
 
moose has the profile photos page and I think it's stickied. It's not 100% what you're looking for, but it's a start.
 
Speaking of tech specs. Is there anywhere that you can access information like that (cross section, dimensions, etc.) for any kind of disc?

I'm looking to have a machine tool company try and make some metal minis for me and they need some basic size/shape info for a typical disc (something more along the lines of a putter like and Aviar).

Anyone have anything like that or know where to find it?

Google PDGA technical specs.

This can be easily done at most shops by cutting a disc in half then taking measurements. Reverse engineering is common.

I would imagine that the manufacturers' actual specs would be trade secrets. Best bet would be to take some measurements yourself.
 
Here's a screen shot from the PDGA standards. That should work.

3D scanner and a spectacular specimen of every desirable type of every mold ever made. Simple as that!
