Where is a good place to get Floor Discs?
-
A better question is what should one look for in floor discs. Material? Brass seems most common, but a couple of places have aluminum and titanium. What about some kind of pad to go between the disc and the floor, should you use them? Are they just to protect the floor from getting scratched?
