Dean, I have cut my urelite using cheap diamond blade 0.3mm. I have use one
blade to cut 3 slices. This take around a hour to cut each slice 4x4cm. You
only need a patience and good equipment. My specimen was ultra hard, thats
why I have not cut more slices. This can be faster maybe if I will use new
blade every 10 minutes but this will be big waste of blades. All will be
killed very fast.
Anyone have better idea how to cut very hard urelites ?
