I was going to title this thread 'A mess of Mescalero', but I lost three to the trim saw and will probably lose at lest one to the wheels.
I check for fractures when designing but the material is brecciated which should be spelled breakiated.
I looked at the back of the top right preform and needed to move it a little before grinding because of a chip. I ground the edges to dop and I really liked the pattern on the back.
I was thinking about making the back the face but the edges showed me that it would grind off. I thought about making it a flat top polished on both sides, but then the faces have to be lined up perfectly. I am going to polish the bottom and then dome the original top.
