Take a bat, glue on a floor sanding disc. put the sanding disc/bat on your wheel. run the wheel slowley and place the pot/foot in the center of the moving bat. Will grind evenly. Just be sure to get the grinding dust out of the wheel pan with a brush and shop vacume to ensure no contamination or hurting the wheel bearings. You could also use wet-or dry sandpaper and water on the sanding whee/bat for a smother finish. When Flat, tilt the potto 'round out" the edge. Works for me. Sam in Daly City.

Hi,
I am wondering if someone has found the ultimate bottom of pot/foot ring grinding device that will grind it flat without chipping away the edges. I have a bench grinder and diamond disk on my 4" grinder and they work but I need something that works better. Parts of the foot will pluck or chip away sometimes and so if anyone has ideas, I'm all ears.
