A major hurdle with this method is that a modern PC disk drive requires a ''flippy mod'' to read the other side of a dual-sided disk. There are some workarounds for doing this with an unmodified disk drive, but they all involve damaging the sleeve of the original floppy. After obtaining stream files of the disk, [https://atariage.com/forums/topic/231835-a8rawconv-a-new-raw-disk-conversion-utility/ a8rawconv] can be used to create a .NIB image. There do not appear to be any tools to create a .WOZ image from stream files at this time.
