I'll check around town for stone suppliers who might give or sell me off-cuts to test with. Countertop thickness pieces should work with my laser's thickness limit of around 3". I might also try masking off the stone, cutting the mask in-situ, removing the unnecessary bits and hitting it with some muriatic acid or whatever I can find that might dissolve the stone. We'll see how that goes.

Sounds like a plan! Wish I were there. I love new process development and have always wanted to try working with lasers since studying optics in college physics. I'd learn a lot. The closest I got to it was trimmable termination resistors at wafer level.
