Failure to do so will severely decrease wheel life • All JET-KUT™ dry cutting diamond blades can be used wet for added cooling WET CUTTING BLADES • Wet cutting diamond blades must be used wet at all times to prevent excessive heat build-up during operation • A continuous water flow is essential as excessive heat will cause blade damage, loss of wheel life and could cause a safety hazard. -
The Art of Stone Masonry in the Rockbridge County Area (1700 to Present)
The Art of Stone Masonry In the Rockbridge County Area (1700 to present) Steven Connett Archaeology 377 5/25/83 Dr. McDaniel The art of stone masonry in the Shenandoah valley seems to be somewhat of a mystery prior to the nineteenth century. However, as some of us have learned from the anthropology 101 course: The absence of artifacts (documents in this case) is just as important as the presence of artifacts. In order to make sure that the lack of information was not due to my possible incompetence in research, I spoke with a current day stone masoner named Alvis Reynolds. Mr. Reynolds relayed t o me that when he was trying to learn the skills of stone masonry he, too, had great difficulty in obtaining information and thus decided to teach himself this art through the process of trial and error. Although this information did not directly aid me in my research, Mr. Reynolds did provide me with a bit of information that allowed me to derive a hypothesis on why there is this unusual lack of information in this line of study. I will state my hypothesis in this paper, however, I will not be able to prove it or disprove it due to the deficiency in available information. Mr. Reynolds explained to me that in the eighteenth century there were nomadic stone masoners. These nomadic workers went from valley to valley in search of people who needed help with building their houses. Since these people did not know how to cut stone themselves (after all, stone cutting is not the type of thing that is innate to most people) they had no choice but to p~y these men for their services or go unsheltered. -

Edmar Diamond Blade Training Manual 2 What Is a Diamond Blade?
DIAMOND BLADE BASICS Edmar Diamond Blade Training Manual 2 What is a Diamond Blade? Continuous Turbo Segmented Edmar Diamond Blade Training Manual 3 What is a Diamond Blade? The blade core is a precision-made steel disc which may or may not have slots. Blade cores are tensioned so that the blade will run straight at the proper cutting speed. Proper tension also allows the blade to remain flexible enough to bend slightly under cutting pressure and then go back to it’s original position. Diamond segments or rims are made up of a mixture of diamonds and metal powders. The diamonds used in bits and blades are man-made (synthetic) and are carefully selected for their shape, quality, friability, and size. These carefully selected diamonds are then mixed with a powder consisting of metals such as cobalt, iron, tungsten, carbide, copper, bronze, and other materials. This mixture is then molded into shape and then heated at temperatures from 1700˚ to 2300˚ under pressure to form a solid metal part called the “bond” or “matrix.” The segment or rim is slightly wider than the blade core. This side clearance allows the cutting edge to penetrate the material being cut without the steel dragging against the sides of the cut. After the blade is assembled it is “opened,” “broken in,” or, “dressed” by grinding the edge concentric to the center. This exposes the diamonds that will be doing the work and establishes the cutting direction as noted by the direction of the arrow stamped into the blade.

Life of Sir William E. Logan
%:% : LIFE SIR WILLIAM E. LOGAN, It., LL.D., F.E.S., F.G-.S., &c. first director of the geological survey of canada. Chiefly Compiled feom his Letters, Journals and Reports. BERNARD J. HARRINGTON, B.A., Ph.D., PROFESSOR 01' MINING IN M'GILL UNIVERSITY ; LATE CHEMIST AND MINERALOGIST TO THE GEOLOGICAL SURVEY OP CANADA. WITH. STEEL PORTRAIT AND NUMEROUS WOODCUTS. EonBon SAMPSON LOW, MARSTON, SEARLE, & RIVINGTON, CROWN BUILDINGS, 188 FLEET STREET. 1883 6 PREFACE. rPHE task of preparing a biography of Sir William Logan was not a self-imposed one, and was only undertaken with feelings of great delicacy. There are those who knew him longer and more intimately, and who might have done far better justice to his memory. But the work having been entrusted to me, I have endeavoured to discharge it faithfully. My aim has not been to write a eulogium or yet a lengthy criti- cism of Sir William, but rather to bring together such of his own words as will recall him to the minds and hearts of old friends, or enable those who were not privileged with his acquaintance to form for them- selves an estimate of his character and work. Canadians cannot afford to forget the name of oije who laboured so long and so earnestly to promote the interests of this his native land, and if the following pages in any way serve to keep green the memory of Sir William Logan, their compiler will feel more than repaid. We have plenty of Canadians able and willing vi. PREFACE. to work for themselves, but too few who, like Logan, are willing to work for Canada. -
Diamond Blade Overview
DIAMOND BLADE OVERVIEW Variables in Cutting The segment is the part of the blade that actually does the cutting. A measured quantity of manufactured diamonds are mixed to- gether with a specific combination of powdered metals (the matrix) and processed in graphite molds at a high temperature and high pressure to form individual segments. • Diamond blades do not really cut, instead they grind through material. • The diamond crystals remove material by scratching out particles of hard, dense materials, or by knocking out larger particles of loosely bonded abrasive material. CONTINUOUS SMOOTH RIM • Provides clean, smooth cuts on: Glazed ceramic tile, marble, granite, porcelain and quarry tile • Wet and dry specs available • Sizes: 4" – 14" diameters SERRATED / TURBO RIM • Provides fast cutting with minimal chipping on: Roof tile, unglazed tile, masonry, brick, block, paver, stone and concrete • Dry specs (can be used with water) • Sizes: 4" – 16" diameters SEGMENTED RIM • Provides maximum life and cutting strength: Concrete, reinforced concrete, asphalt, masonry, brick, block, paver and stone • Wet and dry specs available • Sizes: 4" – 60" diameters 1 www.mkdiamond.com Training Manual WET & DRY CUTTING TYPES OF CUTTING • There are two basic types of cutting – dry or wet. • The best choice of blade depends upon: - the requirements of the job - the machine/tool utilizing the diamond blade - the preference of the operator DRY CUTTING DIAMOND BLADES Because of the overwhelming popularity of handheld saws, and the flexible nature of MK diamond blades to professionally handle most ceramic, masonry, stone and concrete materials, the dry cutting blade is very attractive. Dry cutting blades are also used where water is not permitted or not convenient or where so little cutting is required that set-up of water cooled equipment would be inefficient. -

Installation Tools
INSTALLATION TOOLS a quality brand of QEP Co., Inc. was founded in 1979 in the New York family garage of Lewis and Susan Gould. The very first QEP branded tiling product was a “Do-It-Yourself” Bathtub Edging Kit. There was nothing like it on the market. As the popularity of tile floors began to rise in the United States, so did the demand for DIY installation tools and accessories. This demand quickly opened the doors of opportunity for the QEP brand throughout the national tile tool market. The QEP brand continued to grow and evolve, eventually expanding into the professional market. In 1984, QEP released the world’s first “dual rail” tile cutter, and in 1989 began manufacturing their own professional tile spacers. In the late 90’s, QEP Co., Inc. continued to expand its reach and began selling the QEP brand into Canada, Mexico and South America. Over the next decade, the QEP brand made its way into Australia, New Zealand, England, France and China. Today, QEP has become an recognized professional brand, specializing in installation tools and accessories for tile, porcelain and natural stone. QEP products can be found in all 50 States and in countries throughout the world. QEP continually introduces new and innovative products that address the challenges of today’s market. To establish a stronger presence in the professional tiling industry, QEP has just unveiled their most innovative line of tools yet - The Xtreme Series. Advanced designs have enhanced the professional-grade features of this new tool line that has been Engineered by the Pro, For the Pro.
