Ok.....I have several specimens that need some trimming to help make them look more presentable. Any tips on how to do that?

This specimen is very cool, and was a blast to find! It has a big smokey quartz crystal, Microcline and Hematite after Siderite.
As you can see, there was another big smokey quartz (on the left) next to that one, but it broke off. This one definately needs some work. Would love some feed back on trimming ideas if anyone has any.
