I mark all the cuts I can in 1 go with a permanent marker and set the hose up on my whizzer in the gutter, bang a pair of wellies on and cut all my block on a pallet (making it a little higher) I just get a lad to feed them to me and move till they are all cut, back kills but dead quick and you get your cut right 1st time unlike block splitters, clean but rough cut and you cant cut on a radius.

Hated the table saw I used to awkward, whizzer every time for me.

By the way comon Chelsea !
