We were front row for Roger Waters and he still sings all the songs from the wall. Pink Floyd has been a favorite of mine since my high school days. Chuck

That must have been a big rock! I sent my son, brother and at the time boyfriend to see Pink Floyd as an Easter gift in 92 or 4 for the Division Bell tour. It still remains one of the highlights of my son's life. We're all big Floyd fans here.

After you made the first cut, you mentioned that it had more black in it than other pudding stones. Looks like it goes pretty much it through the whole rock. Are you happy about the black or disappointed? To me, it’s different, which is interesting, but I think I prefer white.

Not sure I would want a bunch like that but really excited to see this one. Now to find out how it cabs. Chuck

It still remains one of the highlights of my son's life. We're all big Floyd fans here. On average I get about 12 slabs from a 4" section of rock. This one I cheated and made the first cut right down center then glued each half to wood boards to get the rest of the slabs. Doing that I was able to keep the end cuts to less then 1" each and got the most yield with easy clamping and no fear of slippage. That is pretty much my go to method of slabbing when possible. Chuck
