In those days you were a considered a “real” mason contractor if you had 14” and 20” masonry saws on your jobsite.įor many, many years, wet cutting was the only way to cut. These were all wet cut designed to be run with water. These new masonry saws became widely used in the 50’s and 60’s, especially as electric versions powered at 120 volt or 240 volt, or powered by a small gasoline engine became available. They created similar stationary masonry saws that could also be used on jobsites. Over the next 40 years, several manufacturers jumped into the masonry saw business. This new saw, coupled with the diamond blade, changed the way masonry materials could be cut on jobsites and it started to replace the trusted hammer and chisel for cutting. That changed in 1936 with the invention of the Clipper Electric Masonry Saw. At the time, there were no practical applications for use on a jobsite. Diamond blades, as they were called, were used in factories on very large specialty machines. These segments were brazed/welded to a steel core and completed the blade. The cutting or grinding was possible by using diamond grit or chips embedded in a metal matrix creating the segment. In 1926, a blade was invented that could cut stone, brick, and concrete masonry materials. In this part of the article, we will now focus on the Masonry saws and blades.
