DanaM:
Looks like a piece of old white glass like they used to make plated and such out of.. Have any pics before ya hit it with a rock?

jamie:
i'll get some tomorrow. one side had toothing marks for glueing. on a couple pieces there are lamination lines that create hinges.

   Jamie,I have the same glass in dark purple,green and tan.I took some up to Pat's campout.It was used on buildings around the turn of the century I was told.They were stuck on the sides with a grout like 3' square tiles.It makes excellent points and very long blades.See the "lawnmower blade"in the pictures from Pat's.I'd love to find some in that white.
