STONE FABRICATION DVD'S

Looking for How-To Videos for fabricating Granite? Whether you are looking to profile and polish stone/granite or do an undermount sink with granite in your home, we have the DVD to help you! Want to know the secrets of the pros on how to fabricate granite and stone? These videos teach the lay person how to cut, grind, bullnose, and polish granite. The Brazed profile wheels referred to in the Profiling & Polishing video are the same as our DBT (diamond brazed technology) wheels found here: http://www.hoskindiamond.com.au/category111_1.htm

	DVD - Profiling & Polishing DVD 1: Fabricating Stone DVDs Design, Cutting, Laminations, Edge Detail, Polishing, Rodding This is a "how to" video. This video teaches the layperson how to fabricate a piece of stone. It demonstrates which tools to use and how to use them when fabricating a piece of granite slab. By fabricate I mean to change the edge from square to whichever contour you want, then polishing the newly ground edge. This is NOT a 6 hour video compressed down to 32 minutes, but rather a start to finish project which shows how almost anyone can make a beautiful edge on their stone in very little time with the help of the right tools - tools which we are prepared to sell you at the same prices we sell them to our construction accounts. Back to the video, we took a piece of 2 cm thick granite which is 5' long and a little over 2' deep. The first thing we show is how to cut the piece using a poor mans rail saw. We then laminate a couple of the edges to give the stone the appearance of being twice as thick as it really is. We proceed to fabricate the front & side edge into a 45 degree beveled edge. The new shape was cut into the top of the slab on what will be the front & side edges of a bathroom counter. We then polished the newly ground edge to match the finish on the face of the highly polished slab. There is no need to bevel or polish the other 2 sides as they will be against walls and will have backsplashes above the cut edges. We show the polishing process in agonizingly great detail. This part of the DVD is actually pretty boring, but we didn't want to skip through it as polishing is a slow process. Finally we show you how to rod the slab for strength so it won't break during transportation or installation. We are not recommending that you watch this video once and then sell your house to open a stone fabrication business. There is a lot more to having a successful fabricating business than this - that's for sure! What we are recommending is that if you have always wanted to work with granite or marble then this video is a "Must See", allowing you to make high quality stone pieces that will last forever! The "fabricator" in this video is NOT a professional craftsman or stone worker. The "fabricator" is Mark DeFusco. If I can make this beautiful work of stone then so can you. One disclaimer I want to say is that the edge design used on this piece is a 45 degree bevel. This is the easiest shape to work with as it is all on one plane. You can still apply all the techniques of this video to other shapes like a demibullnose (aka radius or 1/4 turn), a full bullnose (a half turn), an ogee profile (does a little dipsy doodle) or any other profile you want. There are lots of shapes to choose from, but I have listed the 4 most popular ones here. Go with whatever your tastes are and we will help you make a beautiful masterpiece at a fraction of the cost you would pay to have it done for you. Not to mention that you will have the pride of making something that will last forever.		Price:	QTY:

	DVD - The Undermount Sink from Start to Finish DVD 2: Fabricating Stone DVDs This "how to" video is the second in our series of 3 for fabricating granite for the do it yourselfer. In this video we take the slab that we put the contoured and polished edge on and show the start to finish process for fabricating it to accomodate an oval undermount sink. We also show the process for fabricating a rectangular undermount sink with rounded corners. This video teaches the layperson how to fabricate and polish the sinkhole, how to drill the spigot holes, how to mount and support the undermount sink and finally how to install the counter and backsplashes to a cabinet. The sink we used for this video is the ceramic type sink which is actually adhered to the granite countertop. It is not the installation of the stainless undermount sink, which is far easier. This is NOT a 6 hour video compressed down to 32 minutes, but rather a 50 minute video which shows the completion of the counter project. This instructional DVD teaches almost anyone to fabricate an undermount sinkhole and to install a beautiful stone counter in very little time with the help of the right tools - tools which we are prepared to sell you at the same prices we sell them to our construction accounts. Back to the video, we took a piece of 2 cm thick granite which is 5' long and a little over 2' deep. We already had a 45 degree bevelled edge that was polished (courtesy of the first video) and a laminated front edge. We then proceed to cut and polish the sinkhole, drill the spigot holes, install the counter with backsplashes and mount the undermount sink with support brackets. If you have always wanted to make a bathroom or kitchen granite countertop then this video is a "Must See", allowing you to make high quality stone pieces that will last forever!		Price:	QTY:
