wvfknapper:
Wow mullet, looks like that ole Monkey was on your back today :o If you zig zag that square edge on the slabs then abrade them lightly you will cut back on those cross snaps,, also watch how you support the slab, if you got pressure on each end of the slab and take a flake from center it's gonna snap........Keep a Chippin.

Hillbilly:
Eddie, I have those days frequently. If I break two or three I usually call it a day and wait til my mojo is working better. The ones you turned out look good, though.
mullet:
Thanks Steve. I was pushing it. I really only have the weekend to work on the dozen. And turkey season started down south Saturday.
