This is an educational simulationFigures are indicative and derived from conventional workshop rules of thumb, not from measurements of your stone. Real work follows the tool and the material. Always follow the equipment instructions and your local safety requirements.
Before you work stone for realWorking stone produces respirable crystalline silica, and the damage is cumulative and permanent. Work wet where the stone allows, extract dust at the source, and wear a fitted P100 respirator for any dry operation.
