Giving a hand hewn look to finished edges
Beaver was designed to provide a splitting machine that is capable of rendering a rough,more natural hand hewn look to edges on material that previously might have been simply sawn.
How does Beaver work?
As the name suggests, the machine has a series of teeth that 'nibble' at the edge of the stone, thereby changing the whole look from sawn to hand hewn.
