Somebody made this with a zagami 10 or 15 years ago. See here (This is not my website)
http://www.marscube.com/about_fr.html
It is pretty cool looking although in reality a very expensive paperweight.
It was a popular item that sold for around $150 on ebay (At least thats what I easily sold a couple for at one time some years ago). Came with a nice descriptive writeup.
I dont remember any other meteorite having this done with it.
If one wanted to actually embed a meteorite in something like this how would one go about doing it?
Sincerely
DEAN
