That's much more in my budget range. Thanks. Do you have any recommendations for raw amber suppliers?
Thanks Caroline. I may take John up on his suggestion, but I'm also waiting to see if he thinks a piece 4 by 3 by 2 1/4 inches is too big for a tile saw.
The piece is 4x3x2 1/4 inches. Is that too big to put through a tile saw?
That's what I was thinking of. A bit outside of my budget right now, but it is on my Santa list.
Thanks, Caroline. What TPI do you recommend?
Do you mean those miniature table saws?
Thanks. It's a pretty big piece, maybe 3 by 3 by 4 inches cubed. I did cut a much smaller piece with a piercing saw, but it took me hours to do it. Perhaps I wasn't using the saw properly.
I recently got ahold of a nice 240 gram piece of amber from the Dominican Republic, and want to know how to cut it into slabs. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
