@jimjamos- I didn't realise you were Haiku : )
So you think straight 953 might actually work with discs? Would it would need reinforcing in some way to be on the safe side? (Like this Max fork by Devlin, attached)Also, I'm confused about 953 tig welding... I contacted Liz Colebrook from Beaumont (she makes a lot of steel disc forks) to ask her advice, and she replied "Stainless would need to be TIG welded. Ie unicrown, which you say you don't want. A fork crown would be brazed and built with Reynolds 853 or 631".
Because I'm 100% new to both disc brakes and stainless tubing, I am now confused.... Is yours quite rare for being made with a crown? I'm sure I've seen one by Anderson as well, but most people seem to go with carbon so it's difficult to find examples.

These have raked fork blades and 1 1/8 steerer
Only thing I’ve built that’s similar, they’re 953 blades.
