    Well I have 4 blocks just of this stone. Then a load of uncut Charnley forest, Diorite and welsh slate.

    If I was just after a single cut I'd probably opt to send it out. These stones are unknowns internally. So I'll expect to have to cut off small segments 1/2" at a time to try get the best inclusion free faces. I may even have to make a cut or 2 then decide on a different cut angle to avoid inclusions or work with cracks. With that in mind 5-6 cuts per block, 4 blocks, and a company wanting a few £ for each cut. I could spend the price of the blade pretty quickly.

    I've requested a quote for this product, So I should know in a few days what the price is going to be.
