Sounds like the best idea so far. One could buy square stock, saw it off 1/8" long then use a 1" collet in the lathe to face the sawn ends. Depends on the size of the lathe as one would need a 14" swing or larger to hold the collet closer or collet chuck.
Leather, rubber or wooden jaws in a bench vice would be useful. Cut as needed and temporally glue them in place. A hot glue gun would be appropriate.
