I've been cutting preforms like crazy so I will have enough to do this winter (all my saws are outside and unheated). Think this should do me. Local stuff on the left, imports on the right.

Nope Randy, not for the vibe. I just like to cut them to general shape before cabbing. Saves the laps a bit. Here you go itsandbits, I think this is the right yellow. Its porcelinite.

If you are like me only about a quarter of them will be made into cabs. The others will sit around for years as I keep cutting more than I can grind.
