I add to that that the violet disk sledges are made of the same 
composite plastic.
I extracted one to change a disk, it became fragile as crystal: I 
removed the screws and parts broke off and the rupture point show 
crystal like fracture lines! I glued it with cyanacrylate (not even 
easy) and even it did glue not very strong, at the slightest touch it 
would breake a couple of mm near the glue point, so it is completely 
degenerated.
Fun. Or not really.
