During my first job in a marble yard, and old boy (actually he was probably about as old as I am now) taught me a few basic techniques about moving heavy lumps of stone that requires very little effort.<br /><br />My favourite - and also the most impressive to an on-looker - is when you have a six-foot high block of stone which weighs about 2 tons, which you effortlessly turn with two hands until it faces the other direction. You lever up one bottom edge, slip a little pebble underneath in the centre, let it down on the pebble and it simply spins on it.Tom Stephensonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05979590950587415840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2505385214324438018.post-10645414495812205892011-07-22T23:39:20.844-07:002011-07-22T23:39:20.844-07:00You're entitled to have a 'deformed' c...You're entitled to have a 'deformed' character Tom, you're an artist!<br /><br />Carry on moving weights like that around Tom and the next thing you'll be carving will be your headstone haha.Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11487456386841182116noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2505385214324438018.post-74040132906503442912011-07-22T11:13:25.626-07:002011-07-22T11:13:25.626-07:00Like a chocolate bunny, Weaver, or pre-formed, lik...Like a chocolate bunny, Weaver, or pre-formed, like chicken nuggets?Tom Stephensonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05979590950587415840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2505385214324438018.post-32575271858886271252011-07-22T07:52:52.230-07:002011-07-22T07:52:52.230-07:00Watch that back Tom - my physio would pale at read...Watch that back Tom - my physio would pale at reading this post - as for your art being character forming - you are the most formed character I know!The Weaver of Grasshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13947971556343746883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2505385214324438018.post-71829443994819917692011-07-22T02:45:04.367-07:002011-07-22T02:45:04.367-07:00Me kneeeze est already bent, mon cheri.Me kneeeze est already bent, mon cheri.Tom Stephensonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05979590950587415840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2505385214324438018.post-61986206166294166522011-07-22T02:42:36.793-07:002011-07-22T02:42:36.793-07:00Merçi mon pote.
