UPDATE: Struts, Springs and Brakes Done, thread here:

And for the fellow tool heads, here's my lathe set up for turning the rotors, the trick to smooth brake feel is cutting both sides at the same time, like a real brake machine. Yes I'm cutting with reverse rotation... that way I could use a standard boring bar for the side close to the chuck.
The results... and the brakes feel smooth as glass.
