    Dany had a very bad motorcycle accident before I met him. He was a gentle giant who never complained and he passed not more than a couple of months after finishing the calade.
    A great man in his way. Sincerely, Richard

    Those two stone cutting tools.
    Phenomenal stuff.
    I intend to make something similar for sandstone one day.
    Hopefully I won't 're so old and decrepit that I won't be able to swing them.
    Dany was, and remains an inspiration.
    Thanks for posting👍

    Thank you so much. This Video is great! I hope this will never become
    a lost art as consequence to humanities feverish pursuit of
    technology.

    Fewer artisans by the day. Finding good stone masons is becoming real rare. Specially those who share passion for their art.
    RIP for him. This video becomes a legacy of is work. ;-)
    Cheers

    Wow. I'm impressed and interested.
    How long does it take to become a stone mason? I've studied courses in Geology and know where to find minerals and how to extract them.
    I'm thinking of buying a piece of land and building a home with all the rocks from the land.
