Hello:

To cut a basically rounded hexagon granite stone into a semi ashlar
pattern for stone facing on block wall, what is the best (with power
tool) practice? Masonry wet saw scoring (approx 1/2 inch around the
perimiter of the stone), followed by air chisel? or .............

I have scanned the postings as well as a number of books on stone
masonry, but I have had not used stone before, nor am I really sure
which would be the best process ; but I am familiar with block wall
facings and masonry.

Thank You
