DVD - 1: How to Fabricate Granite Countertop DIY - Profile & Polish Edge

This is a video on how to profile and polish granite countertop for Do-It-Yourselfers. We turned a piece of 3 cm (1-1/4") granite with very rough edge into a beautifully polished 3/8" radius edge.

In this 26 minute video, Buren Smith, our 25-year veteran stone fabricator, demonstrates the following skills and techniques:

1. Safety Products for your protection;
2. Using variable speed angle grinder;
3. Grinding with turbo diamond cup wheel;
4. Straight cutting with turbo diamond blade;
5. Creating radius profile with hand profiler;
6. Edge Polishing with dry diamond polishing pads;
7. Re-sharpening of glazed polishing pads;

The video introduces different tools to be used for edge profiling and polishing, and unveils the mystery of granite fabrication. You will surely find this video very informational and instructive if you ever want to tackle such a project that has seemed to be mission impossible before.

DVD 2: How to Fabricate Granite Countertop DIY - Cut & Polish Undermount Sink

This is a video on how to fabricate granite undermount kitchen sink for Do-It-Yourselfers. The project was to replace a top mount granite kitchen sink with an undermount granite kitchen sink. We took a piece of matching "pre-fabbed" granite slab (by pre-fabbed we mean the edge has been pre-fabricated), cut the sink hole and polished the entire sink edges.

In this 28 minute video, Buren Smith, our 25-year veteran stone fabricator, demonstrates the following skills and techniques:

1. Templating;
2. Using variable speed angle grinder;
3. Straight cutting with grinder and turbo blade;
4. Curved cutting with contour blade;
5. Smoothing curve cuts with drum wheel;
6. Polishing undermount sink with dry polishing pads;
7. Drill a faucet hole with Sure-Guide and dry core bit.

This video demonstrates fabrication of a rectangular undermount sink. These skills and tools can also be applied to fabricating oval undermount sinks and vessel bowls.
