It is not uncommon to see a person thinning a mag chuck with a 1 x 3" worn-out stone. Doing that to my grinder and out-the-door, a light swipe with a flat fine hone with a like-new small stone is not so bad. . I use a new condition 6 or 8" stone and stone the whole chuck. And I don't hole a little spot every time I set a part on the chuck.
A true stone can be used to check squareness with the stone on your checking plate^ and then a small part rub to the stone. Good to place the stone on a piece if card paper to protect the chuck and wet diamond wheel grind the hone-stone to flat and square, a 120gt wheel is my choice.. Yes, blocked-in with the go direction block touching hight up on the stone.
Actually, I use a 120gt wheel for all non-surface-spec grinding.
^checking plate...a 8x10x5/8"(or what) steel plate that one uses for a mini surface plate/gage plate/and many uses.
Plus, moving/using other sections of one check can save frequent regrinding of the chuck... center at the bump rail is not the only place to use a mag chuck.
