Wow, I think I saw that one when it got sold, you done good, theres some real good color there. If you haven't already done it, band those slabs up between plywood so they don't curl on you.

Yeah, I am happy for you man, I love cutting that stuff up. I bet your eyes got bigger after every slice you cut off. I am sure your slices are fine but even the old ones try to curl on you after they are first cut especially the thin ones. Good score, a year ago you never would have seen that. Anyway, good on you.
