I find that the fixings for a new integrated washing machine door hinges are at a
different position from the old one.
This means that the new 35mm dia sinkings in the cabinet door will foul the
old ones - - just overlap so
we cant drill for or fix the new hinges unless we fill the old sinkings
Q. Where can we get 4 x 35mm wood discs to fill the old sinkings ? We cant
redrill the metal machine casing - to thin to hold.

i personally would get an epoxy two part wood filler or a two part car body filler and fill the offending holes once the filler is set completely, just re drill the new recesses exactly where you want them

Try a 38mm (outside diameter, or od) holesaw cut into same depth board, a good wood glue, mark up, redrill, fix and fill.
OR
Providing your centres don't foul, 35mm od holesaw cut into new position, spin out plugs, align for arc, good wood glue, fill and fix.
OR
Drink a vast quantity and see if it'll fit now

I have used a resin based wood filler - Cuprinol are one company that makes it, but there are others. Mix it like car body filler and fill your holes. After half an hour or so, when its set, you can drill the new holes.

Is the door handed? If not just flip it over and redrill with a Forstner bit at the correct locations.
