Getting diamonds cut has been a long and arduous process that involved calculating at which point one should quit a process in order to meet a deadline (assessment) or continue you in order to reach the goal at any cost. Making these boards on a bed saw would result in inaccuracies which may or may not have been fixable. However, there is no disputing the absolute accuracy of the laser cutting method - exact clones of each other. It is a reminder that one must be realistic and rely on a miracle!! In this case a last minute gift form a friend saved the day, and unblocked this project. Even then they were cut wrongly, requiring a further slice to be taken off. The amount of time taken to fix the problem was equivalent to the time it would have taken to do a best guess job in the first place. Proving that time could be found after all.
