    Unfortunately yours didn't turn out as well as Chris'.
    It must be a 'Chris' thing to try and cut shapton stones.

    I can imagine how it went:

    1.) Hand slipping from the stone, momentarily lifting the forcefull grip of brighty the mighty
    2.) Stone falling, accelerating at a staggering rate
    3.) At the peak of acceleration the impact seems inevitable
    4.) Brighty thinking: "come on gravity, you used to be cool" trying to prevent the worst
    5.) Shaptons masterpiece shattering into pieces
    6.) Brighty shaking one single angry fist thinking "damn you, Isaac Newton for inventing the gravity!"



    I´m very sorry to hear your stone got hurt, though

    When the new Shapton 1k arrives, simply close this chapter and shuffle on down to the rubber mat store.

    Case closed............
