slate that i can cut with a jig saw and chip the edges to give it some texture. i posted some pictures last year of xmass trees i made several years ago and handed out for gifts. i usually draw the shape on cardboard (in my case an the inside of an empty bud light 30 pack) and when i have the shape i want i cut it out to use as a templet.

the slate is usually grey/blue/red or a mixture - flat on both sides although one side is the front - use to be used for stepping stone walkways or set into cement walkways - can't find it anywhere - was going to look at roofing slate suppliers although there are none near here.

the picture is a few i have up in my home office
