I DO NOT abuse my equipment if that is what you are inferring.
Somehow, I knew you would.

Furthermore, the holes that are broken out ARE NOT the ones that the 3 driver pins went through.
I do not imply things. I just say them straight out. I do not think anyone on this site could abuse their stuff more than I do. I'm pretty rough on my machines because I use them to their full potential. But I also have ran equipment for years and know how far I can push them without tearing them up. I do not think, or imply, that you are abusing the machine.

That said, see below:

The flex plates eventually fatigue and crack. I love QLs but do realize this is an idiosyncrasy with that series.
This is the point I was making.

I agree that it doesn't look like it has the steel plate in the center. I too have seen the older discs with no plate that broke out.
