Lots of work/fun there. Do you have a good blade on the tile saw?
I like the brecciated piece in the last pic best. Careful with the slag - the shards hurt.
After you trim your shapes, what will you cab with - or will you tumble finish?

Hi All!!!
Just this past Monday evening and again last night I went over to my friends house and with the exception of 6 small slabs, I cabbed all on the saw and will be posting the pictures in about 10 minutes.
Actually it only took me about 4 hours total between Monday night and last night. I got 43 cabs I think. I will now have all the Gryphon work to do. I need to smooth out all the edges and then they should be ready for the vibe.
We have to be careful in the beginning on my sawing time as we do not want to piss off Bonnie's neighbors. I think it is going to work out beautifully and if all goes well, I will be able to cab slabs at least twice a week, if not more. I really have missed doing this.
My saw is a wet tile saw from Home Depot and I bought a Hot Dog blade for it. It works very well.
Enjoy!
