This works well except do not use a good table saw. The resultant dust from cutting will get into the mechanisim. I have an old 9 inch table saw that is reserved for that duty.

For example one blade will easily allow me to put a brick veneer of simulated rustic bricks made of colored concrete on a house with a lot of blade life left. This is dry cutting those bricks as well. I have also used an old chop saw dry with the same results. We are talking the 10.00 diamond serrrated blades here in the eight inch range. Masonary abrasive type blades are a total joke in comparison.
