1. A layered float disc system for concrete finishing power troweling equipment, the layered float disc system comprising:
a layered assembly having a first metal disc, a second metal disc, and a foam disc positioned between the first metal disc and the second metal disc; the layered assembly having a first side and a second side;
a plurality of magnetic handles; and
a plurality of foam caps;
the foam disc comprising:
a flat, circular shape;
an outer edge;
a plurality of channels cut into the outer edge;
the first metal disc comprising a uniformly flat top side, and a bottom side comprising a plurality of a first type of mount welded to the bottom side of the first metal disc;
the second metal disc comprising a uniformly flat bottom side, and a top side comprising a plurality of a second type of mount welded to the top side of the second metal disc;
wherein the plurality of the first type of mount and the plurality of the second type of mount are each positioned on the first metal disc and the second metal disc to be inserted into the plurality of channels when the first metal disc is placed on top of the foam disc and when the second metal disc is placed underneath the foam disc;
wherein the first type of mount and the second type of mount are each configured to be associated with and removably bolted to each other within the plurality of channels;
wherein each foam cap of the plurality of foam caps is configured to fit snugly and removably into a channel of the plurality of channels against the inserted first type of mount and the second type of mount, such that installation of the plurality of foam caps into the plurality of channels creates a circular shape;
wherein the first metal disc and the second metal disc, and the foam disc each comprise a flat, circular shape, such that when the foam disc is positioned between the first metal disc and the second metal disc, and when the plurality of foam caps are installed, the layered assembly comprises a smooth outer circumference;
wherein the plurality of magnetic handles is attachable to the first side of the layered assembly and the first side of the layered assembly becomes attachable to the concrete finishing power troweling equipment, such that the second side of the layered assembly is usable for making contact with concrete during a concrete finishing process;
or is attachable to the second side of the layered assembly and the second side of the layered assembly becomes attachable to the concrete finishing power troweling equipment, such that the first side of the layered assembly is usable for making contact with concrete during a concrete finishing process.
