I called bull on the grinder trick until a mason in Omaha put one in my hands
For 15 years I laughed at guys who used an angle grinder to cut brick instead of a chisel and hammer, figured it was lazy and ruined the face. Then a guy on a job in Omaha handed me his with a diamond blade and I did 40 feet of soldier course in an afternoon with barely a chip. Anybody else switch over, or am I the last one holding onto the chisel?
