I resurrected a swingout polarizer with a replacement of the glass. A 
new and slightly larger polarizer as disassembled, and an optician 
ground the glass down to the appropriate diameter.  I should add that 
one member of the LUG commented that when he had this work done, the 
grinding process caused some separation at the edge ofthe new glass 
disk.
