The skill to turn a rock slab into an object of such perfection!
With nothing more than hammers and very occasionally a small chisel. And some basic measuring tools.

Each of the three Craft Degrees of Masonry has a set of working tools, explained both as operative tools for the working stonemason, and speculative tools for Freemasons. They are further defined as:
Tools of action, for the first Degree of Entered Apprentice,
Tools of testing, for the second Degree of Fellow Craft,
Tools of creativity, for the third Degree of Master Mason.

Every block of stone has a statue inside it and it is the task of the sculptor to discover it. Read Tom's review of Chiseled from Grand Gamers Guild for the reveal.

Danish stonemason’s eco-friendly gravestones challenge tradition
In #Denmark, the tradition of using granite for gravestones has posed environmental challenges due to its heavy importation from countries like India and China, contributing significantly to CO2 emissions.
However, Nikolaj Tymm-Andersen, a visionary stonemason, decided to forge a different path by replacing granite with a local resource: clay.

Hi to anyone with an interest in #Scottish #geology and its history. After decades of amassing a dozen works by #HughMiller, it's time for me to be passing them (i.e. selling!) to other custodians.
Hugh Miller was a 19th century polymath, #stonemason, journalist, #Christian and #palaeontologist. Most importantly he was a superlative observer of geological phenomena, and able to lucidly describe the wonders he saw in rocks/nature.
If interested please send me a message

@MichaelJDeLuca Throwing away! Gasp! 😉
Glad you are reclaiming the material. As a life-long, now 70, #StoneMason currently living in a #landscape with zero rocks, your discarded "urbanite" would be VERY welcome here. I got spoiled living in Bloomington IN where I had access to multi-tonnages of precut limestone cheap, 2 cents a pound (sigh). From my files, these two 'urbanite' examples.
PS In a closed system like a planet there is no 'away'.
