Newbee has question about bending slate!

[rwfarnkopf@zzzzzzzzzzz]

If you want to have nice curved stone, talk to the folks here who will help you learn to carve your curve or consider featherwedging and finishing if the material is
something other than slate.
Craig,

Hi and thanks - yea I'll stay away from the shale altogether.  Maybe then someone here could tell me how I can end up with a curved surface on stone other than slate or shale.

I'd like to use it on a wall fountian.  So of course it has to be alright with water running down the face of it and should also be thin.  I could then mount it to a bend piece of plywood.

Thanks

rick
