Meteorite was in nice condition. I have done nothing special to it, sits on the shelve with the others. So far no problems at all. I live less tha a half mile from the ocean in Maine, the salt air causes me problems with others but so far not this one.

The more new ones purached from Finmet are quite stable, donīt know exact, whatīs the method Ivan uses to satbilise them, but they seem to stay in a good condition. I have had a polished end- cut on my desk several months without any marks of rust. The price of Dronino is quite low, so to me it seems worth to buy a piece, itīs a quite interresting one. But you have to check, you are buying a stabilised piece, not one of the first catastrophes...;- best, pekka s joseph_town_at_att.net wrote: >Hi, > >I've considered Dronino since it was first offered. The original seller pulled no punches and pointed out how perishable it is. Boiled it in oil and recommended storing in oil or grease. Has anyone tried the lye treatment on it yet with positive results? Speaking from the viewpoint of the average collector, is it worth buying or is it as objectionable as Nantan? > >Thanks, >Bill Kieskowski > > > > > >______________________________________________ >Meteorite-list mailing list >Meteorite-list_at_meteoritecentral.com >http://www.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list > > > -- Pekka Savolainen Jokiharjuntie 4 FIN-71330 Rasala FINLAND + 358 400 818 912 Group Home Page: http://www.smartgroups.com/groups/eurocoin Group Email Address: eurocoin_at_smartgroups.com ______________________________________________ Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list_at_meteoritecentral.com http://www.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!?
