Yeah I think another reason why I held off on it is that I can only imagine who crappy it would be to break it in. I mean its not a flat bottom so unless your holding it in your hand its going to rock around when you take a chisel and put pressure on it. I know a lot of you guys use butchers knives but I have found those big wide floor chisels are nice and I can really bear down on it with some pressure. It seems to work faster that way.

Yeah, breaking in might be a pain but I'll find some kind of cradle to set it in.

I was kinda thinking about getting a box big enough for it and glass bedding it. That way you can still get it out but the bad would be perfectly molded for it and then you could also break it in while in the box

Ordered up a large black primitive from Dans today. Can't wait to get it in.

Did they have one in stock or do they have to go source it first?

They had 3 is stock.

three large ones in stock? I just emailed them yesterday and they didn't mention any large ones.

I called on Thursday and was told to call back. When I called today she had the rocks right there and she told me there was one large and two mediums. The medium was 7x3ish. That's still a nice sized slab.

Yeah I think I am going to go with the medium especially since I like to hold them in my hand. How big is the large.

The large was 8x4ish. She said it was more rectangle than the others, that's the main reason I picked it. Figured it might fit in my stone holder.
