Nice offer Jay, I'm sure we can cut that sucker up @ the meeting and find new homes for the babies too!

Also, just to be clear as I said in another thread, I would be looking for a $15 donation per cut frag depending on number of people interested... Looking for atleast 10 people probably can get more... There is roughly 100 eyes so the frags should be decent size

Jay I need to know how thick the rock is at its thickest point. I can cut rocks up to about 4" thick. In regards to that I dont mind doing it just replacement blades cost me $70 each. Im not going to charge people to cut things just making everyone aware. Also be mindful that when your fragging things that you look at something and say yeah I can get 6 frags out of that. No because of the blade cutting pieces up and the parts you destroy while cutting youd really get 4 maybe 5 frags out of something once its all done. Just letting everyone know. Bring what you want Ill be happy to cut it aslong as its not too thick.

If we were to do this we could stick with a particular type of coral each month. That would enable us to discuss the in's and out's of fragging things wile it is pretty simple and straightforward there are always things to be learned in this hobby. I would also like to talk about getting good growth once thing fully encrust on a plug or piece of coral. There is no doubt that having someplace to grow increases growth rate substantially. While that seems obvious it takes a while to learn that lession with some encrusting corals.

the coral actually came off the rock so it would be basically cutting the coral. yeah this might make 6 frags, not ten... you could almost hit it with a hammer to make frags but a saw would be cleaner.
