Where does my memorial come from? PART 3
The blocks of stone arrive at a production facility to be cut and polished. Here they are cut with a HUGE, wet diamond saw to the correct thickness.
FUN FACT=The HUGE blade can only cut ¾" deep with each pass through the granite, so it takes hours to cut all the way through!
Back to the question...How many people handle my memorial?
8 people from the quarry to the production facility PLUS
2 people unloaded the block,
2 people measure, situate and set up for initial cutting
Total = 12 people have helped make your memorial, AND it is not done yet! How many people do you think will contribute to making your memorial a reality?
