Howdy Folks,

If you are not too picky, one-centimeter cubes can be had quite
inexpensively by using Unifix cubes that are used in elementary math
education.

I used the cubes as a reference for the specimens featured in the Meteorite
Times People article about me. Here is the link to see pics of the cubes in
action.

I will be posting a few specimens for sale soon (but sorry, none of those
pictured in the article will be offered this time) and I will be happy to
provide a free cube (possibly even with a color choice) with any purchase of
the meteorites I am selling. Stay tuned....

Cheers,

Martin
