These alone make me wanna take up guitar! How thick are they? Three turns of the crossfeed? How do you keep slabs from breaking when they part off the mother piece? I wish I had a crossfeed. I use a drill bit depth stop on my fence. As for breaking when they finish the cut. I give them a pillow to fall on plus I adjust my gravity feed for every rock.

Looking forward to them. You keep a clean saw.
Polished glass is many times stronger than glass with minimum scratches to resist side breaking force, no scratches to seed out a fracture(like a glass cutter does).
Guessing a super polished pick made out of agate would behave similar.
Super polished glass resists slow bend breaking forces in stratosphere, some insane strength numbers. One slight scratch and the gig is over.
