I saw some made for a Case a while back...the guy started with a rubber feed pan and cut two round 1/4" plates....one was a clearance fit for the bottom of the inside of the pan.... the other was cut to fit near the rim of the pan so it was larger due to the pans' taper....this top plate also had a large (4-5 inch) center hole cut into it for hub clearance.

There were some heavy washers made from 3/4" plate welded to the bottom plate at each of the holes to give hub clearance when the weights were bolted to tractor hub. They were painted Case orange (f'beau red) and looked pretty good. :-)
