I thought it was 25kg mick, but have been reliably informed that it is as much as 1 man can comfortably lift
obviously different sites can have their own HSE policies

as steve says straight on the front of marshalls next brochure :)

if you recall Steve I asked you last year how to re shape stone and I made further inquiries into buying a portable machine, I was going to reshape them to a smooth curve on the inside and to remove the segmental look on the outside but it was the time involved and cost

I advised the customer that shaping the coping could be carried out but they are happy with the end result

the king size paving is direct to site only and can only be purchased in full packs due to it taking 4 men to lift one out of the crate (hence the 25kg's per man)

Looks awesome mick.
My first thought was that the circles looked out of place but then I scrolled down more and saw how they tied in to the rest of the paving.


Thought about burying the plant pots? would hide the pot and still restrict the growth so it won't interfere with the wall or patio.

I honestly thought the first photo was an artistic impression rather than actual photo....

the large cloud tree should actually be out of the ground more due to low lying frost I have been told, it did start to turn brown a few months ago but has been nurtured back to life again by the home owner who contacted experts in this field

Looks amazing mick must be nice to have a client willing to spend, where abouts was it? Golden triangle or more your way?

When we've done arcs we use a piece of 1 inch armoured cable, or 1 inch+ steel wire to lay them out keeps an nice arc and has enough weight not to move while marking it,
