Good reminder, and I hadn't thought of shaping it on an unwanted record, but this makes sense in light of it being a more durable material, that you wouldn't want to start playing a precious record right away, with disregard to the orientation of the wear pattern from the last time the Tungs-tone was installed. Like turning a chisel sideways to the groove.
