Shakuna, Thanks...how do you deal with the dust...if I'm not mistaken it's considered a real health hazard to breath that stuff in. In fact, from what I read in previous threads here, it's a real OSHA no-no. Plus being bent over with that Stihl for 4 hours as I straddle a walkway might just earn me a trip back to the chiropractor. I do it it (wet) when I cutting the outside edge of bluestone jobs and I know it's not easy.
We probabably average close to 20 linear feet per hour to mark (using a "Paver Scribe") and cut. Not as fast clearly, but not exactly physically demanding either.
