    You could use a diamond sawblade in a circular saw with skill and patience you could cut slices from a larger stone.
    ...

    Then drag them behind your car.

    I was using this to smooth out the back of a chisel today.
    does make it alot smoother.
    As it making craving wood easier but bummer i don't have
    any wood to crave. I would want to crave me scales out of mighty Oak which
    is thor's tree.
    But i can still see the sratchs once i am done on this stone should
    i go to a chinese rock cause i don't want to grind a chisel on any precious stones.

    Bloomberg's not gonna be happy if he catches you pulling up chunks of his sidewalk for honing on.

    I am going to bring chicks of scrap sidewalk home for stone flatting.
    would not be surprise if they become dust.
    I have at least 3 more rock pile finds that need serious flatting.
    The next one once this is done is a light weight only 5.5 pounds about.

    With that one it looks like it would be easier to cut it in the middle with advantage of having two hones at the end.
