How to cut Granite

[paul_capobianco]

Hey I am a newbe in the forum. And I want to cut granite. The granite is 3/8" thick. I need to cut shapes and round bevel edges. We understand lubrication is necesary are there cutters available? Does anybody have any ideas?
Thank you!

Paul,
I think Eastern Marble (www.easternmarble.com (http://www.easternmarble.com)) sells diamond router bits for cutting granite. I am SURE you will have to lubricate, and if my marble cutting experiments hold true for granite you will need to cover most of your machine with plastic as the slurry created by the lubrication will get on everything, and stay there..
