The radius of the disk is 10mm. You can use a ruler or a 10mm open-end wrench to accomplish the same function as the disk.

that seems like a good idea, but i was speaking with the shop owner who used to work on cars and he has one, i was thinking of trying to make a duplicate so if i ever need it in the future, and you are correct, total diameter across is 20mm, so .5 of that is 10mm.
