[meteorite-list] Cutting impact breccia

[Dennis Miller]

Hello, Mr. Witt....  Punch up Gem and Mineral clubs in your state,

near you and you will see all kinds of folks that will be eager to

help you.  I know a couple of guys in my group that have large saws.

Some may use thicker blades some thin. But, most importantly, check

what they use for coolant.  Ya don't want a cut to smell like an

oil change shop.....
