[meteorite-list] One Centimeter Cube Question

[Sean T. Murray]

There are a couple of other options as well.  There are really nice black 
aluminim and brushed aluminum versions available out there...  I've even 
seen a few marketed on the list here made out of irons and chondrites.

Thomas Stadler sells the silver colored ones:

  Site:   http://www.sahara-gems.com/id40.html

There are several resources for the black ones...
- Drake "Doc" Dameräu had some for sale in 2007.
   Not sure if he still makes them:

- The one I purchased had a promounced T/1CM on the face...
   It came from http://myworld.ebay.com/mr_claus
   (DMC Meteorite Photo Scale Cube )
   They pop up now and again on eBay, though I am sure you
   can contact him.

And of course, you can always get the 1cm magnets -
  Tons of places including eBay:
