Default Slate slab

Hi all .
I have just brought a big 1 inch thick slab of slate and want to make a
slate slab for my 7 maple trees as a forest/group.
The base is very flat and has not got much character or shape as yet.I'm
thinking about a shape like a figure 8 but not so defined in the middle .I
know it will need some work but I have plenty of time to do it,and it only
cost me $2.00 from my local nursery....lol .
Has anyone got any web site that shows some pictures of slate slabs as a
bonsai base ,I have looked in lots of books and seen a few pictures but not
any that give me a complete look at the slabs shape .

Bonsai trees are like potato chips -
no one can have just one!
