Hi Mike,
Welcome to the list. I have also seen you on Cloudy Nights, where I think
you may have responded to a few of my own posts and in the swap and shop
section.
I would highly recommend Find a Falling Star by Nininger. A very
inspirational book by the greatest meteorite hunter of all time. Easy
reading and just fun.
I would also recommend the following ebay auction. Why? Because it is my
auction!

As for cutting, I used to cut small meteorites with a lapidary trim saw
using distilled water as a coolent. You would not want to do this with
certain meteorites but for the vast majority of OCs it is fine. i know
some list members have adapted power tools but knowing my mechanical abilty
I personally would not.
Hope this helps.
-Walter Branch
