Nice to see someone else making teardrops! LOL
Those look really sharp! I really like the "micro-patterning" that's going on in these. They're super busy...which I'm a huge fan of in material!

Wow. You folks who've gotten this rough are sure making it look good.
Did notice healed and partly healed fracture lines in the rough.
We "tested" it by loading it into buckets, and dumping them here for cleaning. Didn't have any self-destruct, so it seemed fairly solid overall.
I did find that one chip in the bottom of a bucket I cabbed for the "salvage" thread. Yours look waaay better than that one did.
Thanks for posting the photos!
