Just make sure you feed it well for a few weeks before you frag as it speeds up the recovery rate.
hi adam
if you do it please can we have pictures and a comentry on how it gets on?:( i would be really in terested on how it goes
good luck
nog:)
yup got a frag in mine, big BIG chisel and a large mallet, don't forget toecapped boots, protective glases, leather gloves and of course a high visibility vest :)
(hmm just realised, my frag must have come un-puttied as i don't remember seeing it in the last few days, bet it's over the back :mad: )
This is a pic of one half of a suncoral that was fragged using a angle grinder fitted with a diamond tipped tile cutting blade, it slices through the rock as though it was butter.The last fleshy bit was then cut through with a razor blade.
