Greetings mass mind,
I used to get APGreen to cut their high heat duty soaps (firebrick) that I
use for posts to get adjustable heights. Now they don't cut any more, and I
have some new PCPC (their high duty name) soaps. I want to cut them into
1.5" lengths. Does anybody have any advice for cutting? Types of blades,
etc?
Thanks,
Eric Lindgren

go to the local rental company and rent a brick saw. This will only
be economical if you ahve a lot of cuts to make. If you only have a
ew to make find a brick layer who will cut them for you.

If you don't have access to a stone cutter then you can buy special blades
for your motorized miter box to cut the bricks yourself... Go to a good
hardware store or Woodworker's Warehouse and tell them what you need...
they have blades for cutting bricks and for cutting metal as well...
Tip... A Bandsaw is a great tool for cutting IFB specials... especially
those under the arch.. You may ruin a blade or three but what the hay....

Do you know any rock-hounds or jewelers who do their own stone work?
They ususally have diamond blade saws and could probably do a few cuts
for a trade, maybe? We've been fortunate in that way.
