Want to develop a lecture on searching for mb2's so took a few more pics than usual on this case.

Mark, Well presented and well done, as usual. Glad to see you have voids too ;-)
What bur are you using to trough for MB2? I think I see a diamond bur, long neck, mounted on a turbine?

If you want to use a bur, I'd recommend the Munce burs:
