Title: how to do cut concrete tiles?
Post by: wahaj on September 13, 2006, 21:02:30
hey!

i've just been to northampton in my brother's car to this guy who was giving away free concrete slabs. he said he had 30 of them so i though great! little did i know when i turned up that they were the types that you put on your drive! it took two of us to carry each slab to the car...and we could only take 4 of them home cos they were so heavy....the exhaust pipe scraped on the road everytime there was a bump!

anyway...bless him but we can't go back for more. i want to split them in 4s. they're square and about 2 inches thick....

is there anything i can use to break or cut them neatly?

...list them on ebay or freecycle and see if someone can take them off your hands.

There is usualy slabs on offer on freecycle that are a little smaller
