    I use a kwik way 797 flywheel grinder to do my floaters. I had to do a little machining to the table to install the magnets. You just have to make sure that the table is true after reinstallation and that all the magnets have the same polarity facing up. You can buy stones and dressing wheels from Goodson to do the floaters. I also use a water based coolant that helps keep the floater cool and carry away the residual grinding products. If you are in the automotive industry you can use your brake lathe to cut discs. Keep an eye on things and make sure that things are coming out flat and true. It takes some time to get a repeatable process.
