[meteorite-list] AD Stretch Tektite

Re: http://www.tektites.co.uk/index.html

 

A very informative site, Daniel! Thank you!

 

I particularly thought that the tektite lamp was a beautiful and ingenious use for "scrap" tektites. (I think there would be a market for more!)

I found more details on its creation here: http://www.meteorite-times.com/jims-fragments/tektite-lamp/

 

Cheers,

Pete
