I, without sin, shall cast the first stone. That will be your sign to attack! But you shall not fight this unholy enemy with stones. No! RAZOR GLANDES!  Aim for the eyes! May the Lord have mercy, for we shall show none!“  -Jesus the Noodler

Next, I’ll oil and bake it for a tougher outer surface (just like seasoning a cast iron pan).

I didn't know this technique. But it's interesting.

That's looks great!  If you had to estimate how much time you've put into shaping that, where would guess?

This is why I can’t have nice things! 🤣
I had to try it out.  There was a flaw that was an obvious weakness, and after several hard hits against a block of wood, it broke Right along the flaw.

The grapefruit devastation video was a bit blurry too 😤
but overall that was a fun little endeavor!  10/10 would do it again!

@joemeadmaker, I put several hours into shaping the rock over the course of a couple weeks.  I think the next one will go a lot faster though.
