Hey Mike, Jason, List, The term "very low" when referring to magnetism in a stone meteorite is "very subjective" isn't it? Is there a scale to go by, or industry standard for strength of magnetism? I've had stone material that a super strong and very large neo magnet would barely stick to. A

Re: [meteorite-list] Another question for the Saw Wizards

The very thin blades can, and will cut skin if you are not careful. The thicker blades can cut skin too, but you really have to try a lot harder to do so. So watch out for your digits with those really thin blades! Ed - Original Message - From: "Mr EMan" To: "Meteorite List" ; "Gal

Re: [meteorite-list] Another question for the Saw Wizards

That because a Diamond blade (but not all!) with the very fine continuous diamond mesh does not cut, it "sands". It sands its way right through your tough iron meteorite and if your saw is running smoothly it will give your slice a high polish as it finishes the cut. If you have some issues wi

Re: [meteorite-list] Another question for the Saw Wizards

Hi Ron and List, I noticed that about the blade sanding it's way through the specimen. The first slices I made were the smoothest and the prettiest. Now, after many cuts, the blade is leaving more noticeable saw marks. The blade I am using is the stock/default blade that came with the saw, so I

Hola, Check out the last picture - there's a white chondrule clearly visible in the upper right/center of the photo. Also note the dark chondrule (large, but fuzzy) at the bottom edge of the slice, a tad to the left of center. I'd go with LL6; it has a few chondrules, and from what I understand, th

Last time I cut with a diamond blade it only would cut the nail and not the skin--wanna give it a try and see if thinner blades can cut skin? Mike they make a slab holder/jig which comes in few sizes that lets you cut down below 10mm or so. Once you clamp the stone in the jig you clamp it in yo

Hi Listees! I'd like some opinions on a meteorite I cut open yesterday. It's an oddball I've had in my box of NWA for some time - awaiting a date with the saw. It exhibits a very low magnetism and it has a grey matrix almost entirely devoid of chondrules - although there does appear to be some r
