Читать книгу Brickwork Projects for Patio & Garden - Alan Bridgewater - Страница 26

To cut just a few bricks, for the projects in this book, we recommend using hand tools for the sake of simplicity. The most common method is to simply chop the bricks with a brick chisel and club hammer (see here).

Various machines are available for cutting brick and masonry (see here). You can use an angle grinder, brick guillotine (good for quick 90° cuts, but the results aren’t as good as with a masonry saw), circular saw fitted with an abrasive masonry blade, or a disc cutter fitted with a stonecutting disc. If your design requires hundreds of bricks to be cut, consider renting a masonry saw with a diamond blade (which will also cope with angled cuts).
