Orrum:
Obsidian can be easily bent went working snd snaps easily then. You have to support the back against your hand or leg or whatever method you use. The rainbow from Davis Ca is very shatter prone if from the wrong area. I am the king of bending my preform and therefore breaking it. LOL

I turned the black slab in the saw and got some bigger slabs.
Worked this first one during breaks at work today
Bifaced it with a copper bopper then pressured with a ishi stick

This seems to work better. It's cut on a different plain than that first black slab.
Maybe
