First Billet Viewing, Testing
The compression rig was unscrewed and my first successful mokume billet
was removed!

Note a few things about this billet:
The three golds have not oxidized at all, due to the reducing
environment we created in the bag.
Some White-Out is stuck to one face, and has compressed in a bit.
This will have to be ground out.
There are NO gaps between layers!
To test that the layers were indeed bonded, I dropped the billet from
over my head onto the concrete floor. Nothing moved or separated.
Great success!!
