They went cheap stone, that's for sure! I could have purchased a full shapton glass set for the same price. Or 2 of the cheaper stones \ 1 good stone from the site you provided. or 1 good stone from the site mainaman provided (maxim207's site).
But whats done is done and im not going to kick my self over it, and they seem to be doing what they are supposed to, for the moment. As said before i will use one of the two sites provided next time.
The second stone actually gives the best mirror finish out of all my stones, including my cheap, good, natural and synthetic. So i'm not disappointed with that one at all.. well not unless you tell me its cut wrong or something hehe
If you need any high definition shots of sections, zoomed shots of sections etc let me know and i will organize one.Last edited by Brighty83; 08-17-2011 at 05:30 PM.

Excellent photos. The stone looks better than I thought, having the skin on the back is a good sign, and the sides too, but I can see the curved nature of the strata from the side with no skin. This is what I was talking about and I am pretty sure that from time to time the flaking may be an issue, hard to tell too far into the future. but good luck with it. Alx
