Fossil mammoth tooth slice set. 4x2 inches. Home Stabilized= cactus juice. Uniform thickness nice shine. This material is fragile. Ok once on the blade . I prefer diamond tools to work it. Bandsaw works but could wear out a blade on one project. Regular belt sander works (zircon). It can be good to back this with thin silver, or mica or veneer wood. Some makers know more than I do on the subject, but just some basic knowledge for those not used to this material. I offer a link to buy on my web site so the sale is through the web site using pay pal. I have other mammoth material, lots of fossil ivory scales, specialize in Alaska material. price on this set is $175 Fossil_mammoth_tooth_set.html
