[meteorite-list] Taking a look inside a chondrite meteorite

[Jim Wooddell]

Hello Chris,

I use a dremel diamond wheel when I am in the field from my truck and
it works perfect. Just have to be careful on the amount of pressure
applied.

You can see me using them in my YouTube videos....from my website
http://desertsunburn.no-ip.org .  Check them out if you have time!

Kind Regards,

Jim Wooddell
