Hi List, This is just an FYI for those who cut meteorites.
Today, I received my 6th Dia-Laser meteorite blade and used it to slice up some Oum Dreyga, and some Sudbury black onaping. I am not going to say it is the best blade on the market, because I have not tried every blade out there. But, out of the blades I have tried, the Dia-Laser is the best for water-cooled cutting. The blade is made of stainless steel and will not rust. Also, the blade is designed specifically for water-cooled cutting applications. For those who use small, water-cooled saws, I highly recommend this blade. The Dia-Laser cuts extremely well and has great longevity - I can get hundreds of cuts from each blade before it starts to dull noticeably. Price-wise, the Dia-Laser compares very well to the competition and is priced right around $30 for a 6-inch blade. It's widely available on the web at several lapidary supply websites - I order mine from the Graves company or from Kingsley North company. (I have no connection with Lapcraft or any of the above named companies) Best regards, MikeG --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Galactic Stone & Ironworks - Meteorites & Amber (Michael Gilmer) Website - http://www.galactic-stone.com Facebook - http://tinyurl.com/42h79my News Feed - http://www.galactic-stone.com/rss/126516 Twitter - http://twitter.com/galacticstone EOM - http://www.encyclopedia-of-meteorites.com/collection.aspx?id=1564 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ______________________________________________ Visit the Archives at http://www.meteoritecentral.com/mailing-list-archives.html Meteorite-list mailing list [email protected] http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
