GF cut bone?

I did a test engrave (5% power, 335 i/m, 675 lpi), score (5%, 60 i/m and cut (80%, 15 i/m) on a piece of bone that was over 1/4" thick in most places.

The score and engrave of bone is really neat. Lots of potential there. The cut went maybe a millimeter deep.

This was some dense cow shank. It would cut through some very thin bone at higher power and slower speed or with multiple cuts.

So how I would finish this domino would be to use a bandsaw to finish the cut and then a belt or strip sander to sand down to size.
