Had my discs nickel plated at a platers on Riverside Ind Est at Manningtree. Cant remember their name but they were not expensive. I think the discs
cost about £20 to do

Yes, find someone who works at your local platers, become friends, then get them to dip it with the other 'work' stuff.
Failing that, the usual 'minimum charge' at my local place is about £30, which isn't too bad, so just make sure you get a few bits
done at the same time to spread the cost
