  Hello People,
      Can anybody give me some hints on a good way to saw up an iron =
meteorite?
  I spent 2 hours hackin away at a campo del rusto with little luck. Is =
a carbide tipped blade the way to go here? I noticed that it would saw =
good then hit a hard spot,then saw,then stop when it hit a spot that =
just stopped all together. I tested the rockwell hardness and it came =
out to less than 20 (that must of been a soft place). I figured 30 =
minutes per cut...Ha! Any advice would be greatly apprieciated.

                             Thanks,
                                       Rex
