So I dug up a blank floppy and measured it.

Dimensions are 5.1/4" by 5.1/4".  DUH. :-)  What I* didn't* know was how big the center holder hole was and the radios of the tracks:

The inner track (roughly) has a radius 3/4"
The outer track (roughly) has a radius of 2"

I then realized that since Track 0 is on the *outside* of the disk then that means Track 34 would have the *smallest* number of "sectors" available, with Track 0 having the most.

Now to just work out the math for the circumference and how many bytes can "reasonable" fit on the tracks ... <to be continued> ...
