    Hmmm.....thanks, you've made me think. I do a lot of treasure coin
    mounting and I do the work right on the coin with lotso heat. It
    tends to dish my charcoal blocks pretty deeply, thus hubby's saw. Now
    I'm going to be more careful about using two different blocks for my
    varied applications. See that, 8:15 am and I've already learned
    something new.
