Tungsten!

Possibly my most ridiculous acquisition so far: a pair of 16mm tungsten dice, weighing a massive 147.6 grams, or about a third of a pound!

For fun I weighed all my other metal d6s, and also some non-metal pairs. Left side is single die weight, right side is per pair. All weights in grams, feel free to convert to Freedom Units in the comments.

What do I do with this?

I recently purchased A garage worth of machining equipment from a friend's father's estate. Included was a bunch of metal. Among that metal was this piece of tungsten, 7/8 x 5-1/8". What's the practical use for this? I have machining equipment but I doubt I have anything that would cut this. And even if I did, I don't know what could be made with it. The guy did a lot of tool grinding/ tool making. So I assume it was related to that.
