[meteorite-list] Toolbox Meteorite Clarification?

2008-12-10 Thread STARSANDSCOPES
It seems that for a meteorite to be a Toolbox  it's utilitarian life must 
of been started prior to it being discovered as a  meteorite.  Any use after 
it is known is merely a novelty.  I have a  12.5 Kg NWA sitting on a fern 
stand, it makes a great place to put my hat.   I can't imagine Martin would 
want a 
slice of it for his new  collection!

Martin,  It's your call!

Hi Tom,

I think another caveat might be that the Toolbox meteorite needed to
be used as is rather than pounded into a more desired shape. Just a
thought that knocks the wind out of a thousand years of irons.

If you cannot grow it, you must mine it. Unless, that is, you want to
wait around for it to fall from the sky.

Oh, and regarding the fern-based hat holder, I think I could find
plenty of enjoyment having a hot desert dinner plate displayed here.

Best,

Martin
