    Default Cut a garden wall stone?

    Hi Guys,

    Just redoing my front flower beds and the way things line up, I need a rock cut. I know they make started stones that would fit in there, but I want things flush right the stairs (those are being repainted shortly...) I need two rocks cut, one for each side, anyone have any clue on who may be able to do this? These rocks are 6" thick.

    Use a concrete saw. You can rent them at home Depot, etc.

    just get a 3" cold chisel, or carbon chisel and a mallet, and slowly work a line in, and it will eventually split.

    'Might be overkill if you only need two cuts, but we used one of these when we did ours (rona, etc..)


    If it's not busy, you may be able to do the 2 cuts right in the store if you ask nicely..

    or as Spikers mentioned: just chisel it
    Signatures are dumb..

    If you bring it to me I will cut it with a diamond blade in my skilsaw, but I'm in Cochrane.

    You have 2 options. Wet concrete saw that you can rent from HD or an angle grinder with a diamond blade. The angle grinder will require cutting it all the way around and then using a hammer to break it off, but it will be the easiest option. Pm me if you want as i have my grinder already set up to do that.
