advice from pros on the other side

Hello, i would like to introduce myself to the group.Some may recognize my name from the John Bridge forumns,where by the way JVC Stone (http://g603.net) sent me (here),from (there) I have done dimensional Stone (http://g603.net) and (http://maplered.com) tile for almost thirty years,but never slab work,unless you consider 24x24 Slabs (http://www.VerdeUbatuba.com) ....my back does!Anyway..i've been offered a business proposition to start up a small slab shop,for some specialty work,bbq's and (http://maplered.com) fireplaces,essentially, and (http://maplered.com) would like some (do this,oh my, don't do this) info if anyone's willing to share. I'll be located in cent. Fl., and (http://maplered.com) i respect all reluctance to share info,but any advice on pitfalls,and (http://maplered.com) tools,and (http://maplered.com) especially small bridge,or gantry saws, will be greatly appreciated.I'm familiar with honing, and (http://maplered.com) polshing,and (http://maplered.com) of course the general Stone (http://g603.net) industry.I've looked through the archives here,this morning,and (http://maplered.com) have learned a ton already.TYVM.
