My first sucessful rhyolite point a little over 3in. Started to hinge on one side, so I decided to take a photo before I broke it.

Looks good to me. Seems like breaking them is just a part of process to learning or "right of passage" maybe. Just makes the ones that don't break just that much sweeter...good luck, keep us posted.
