And someone else on standby to call an ambulance. When cutting with electric there shouldn't be any water near. Hag the jolt in your arm wouldn't be from the minor shocks, you either get frazzled, or you don't, no half measures with leccy' mate :) Don't spoil that good work by having the shape of your fried body stuck to it. 240volts ???

Looking good hag, 110v is the only way to go...

Are those sets pointed in black or is it just soil from the turf? That turf looks incredible dry if it's dropping that much dust around.

What you pointing it with?

Those weights look very handy, what are they? 5kg etc?

Never seen circles cut in stone like that before Hagg. I wasn't sure where you were going with it when I saw the first photo but it works like a dream. Job looks the D's B's
