Dear List:
Does anyone have any experience with cutting irons
with a Cubic Boron Nitride blade?
I purchased a 10-inch Pro-Slicer (10 x 0.012) CBN
blade from Lapidary Discounts in California and used

What kind of equipment would I need to cut meteorites? I don't want to do
anything large scale,
just slice open a few NWA individuals. Can I do it without making a large
investment in hardware?

Hi Bob,
You may have thought of this already but just in case...There may be a
lapidary society somewhere near you that could help out in a pinch. My club
is not versed in meteorites (yet!) but it and a lot of the members certainly
have saws and experience in cutting. If you cannot locate any o

Dear All,
I get the feeling someone wants to use a hack saw!
How much is the value of this specimen?
An old all too familiar saying comes to mind here; "junk in, junk out".
For the simple among us, one

Hi Met List
Talking about cutting meteorites / saws. I was able to get a used Lortone 8 IN rock trim saw, vise, belt and splash guard. The saw is older but in good shape. you will have to get a motor for it and a piece of wood to mount it on. I would like to trade it for a nice slice of Allende o
