    Talking completely through my hat (because I haven't tried it
    yet), would it work to make two slices across the m-g, and but
    the ends together?  You'd have two seams, but I'd think you'd
    maximize your chances of getting matches at both of them, as the
    slices would come off the billet right next to each other.  


       XXYY       (Boy, it's hard to describe a process and have
      X    Y        any assuranceit comes across!).  Anyway, what I'm
     X      Y       talking about is cutting one straight slice (the
      X    Y        X's), and another straight slice (the Y's), 
       XXYY       rounding them and butting the ends together for
                      soldering.  Someone let me know if it works!
