I want to cut a slice of Lamont that is in my collection.
I dont have any equiptment or knowlege to cut it efficiently and professionally.
I have to cut these slices within a week.
So I cant really wait for a saw to be ordered and delivered.

In my opinion without good equipment You can destroy specimen or receive big cutting
looses.
Anyway its also importand how thin slices You plan to cut. 2mm or 7mm :)) becouse fat
slices can cut anyone also on "hand saw".
If You dont have any equipment then how You want cut this meteorite ?
