[QUOTE="HeadsUp, post: 25580, member: 414"] The red one would look awesome if it was cut and polished into a door stop I am visualising a rectangular block of the stuff with some felt glued to the bottom , and maybe a finger hole drilled through it for lifting But some people might like a rounded form ? Maybe cut in half and used as book ends ? If its jasper then it's extremely tough to cut , even with diamond segments , ironstone can also be a pain to cut depending on its purity but that stuff is diverse in its concentration , hardness and abrasiveness ( cerchar scale to any geologists here ) :) [/QUOTE]
