    Same way you do it with standard discs, with a dial gauge.

    i was thinking that however wouldn't the slots affect the dial gauge giving a wrong reading?

    cheers

    Not really, it would only blip when it hit the slot but you will still get an accurate reading from opposite sides of the solid part.
