I had a similar thought, although I think fusing wouldn't solve the problem, as it wouldn't create a rough surface. That said, fusing might make it easier to fracture the sand and make rough surfaces.



Right, like fuse the sand and then drop it into water, or cause some sort of thermal shock (blowing air?) to make it rupture into shards.
