"Shapeways' Full Color 'Sandstone' Strength Test" with a Hammer (3D Printing)

Here's the video where I fail to break the thing in two by hand, and therefore resort to a hammer. Spoiler: the printed thing does not survive.
Printed by Shapeways in the material they call Full Color Sandstone.
The color is printed 1mm deep, and at 3mm thickness it's quite strong enough for normal handling.

@Sofia0sama It's a 3d print. I'm testing if it's strong enough. I'll probably make the border a bit wider and rounded to be more resistant against shocks from the side.
