How thick is Milky Way (not counting central bar), relative to its diameter? Is it in similar proportions to a hockey puck? A coin? A vinyl record?

How far from the solar system would you have to go in order to get an unobstructed view of the galactic disk? Is it feasible with current tech to build a space probe that could reach that far, take pictures, and beam them back to earth?
