Hi John,

    That's the sort of info I'm after, I don't personally have the
    required tools but I do have access to them so I should be able do
    this the right way. I did read online that the dust is a problem (can
    cause dust related disorders/disease) not onle from a health stand
    point, but just because so much is created. It reminds me of working
    with graphite (AKA compressed filth) on machine tools! 

    I guess real care is called for, I might leave this project for a
    bit and do some general shell carving to get some practice working
    with shell and power tools. 

    If you or anyone else wants to see some pics the link is:

Thank you.

Cheers, Thomas.
