Needs must, Stonemason from Scotland

There was a program on channel 4 called Restoration Man last Wednesday about 8pm showing a stone cutting machine that appeared to be like a gantry crane and only the circular saw hung down, the saw could swivel around and tilt driven by a hydraulic motor. They were cutting up big blocks of sandstone from a pump house floor. ..Clive

I have a saw jig which I use to cut profiles and mouldings. it has a 300 rise and fall but has no 4th 0r 5th. these are great for that, But they cannot go round internal square corners and only 2 axis movable the 3rd axis is stationary and has to be set by hand and spanner rigging up
Its currently dismantled as I got a new saw from Fleabay which is manual but 5 times faster but as space is a requisite decided to built a cnc instead of converting the older saw.
