[Rockhounds] highland park saw to cut bricks

[steve travis]

You should use light cutting oil or maybe kerosene it will take severaal 
gallons and the brick/block will sharpen your blade.  If you use water it 
will rust your saw and that is the cadilac of saws  probably worth between 
800 and 1500 if the blade and works are good.  there was a long thread about 
types of oil  I only recommend kerosene cause it is cheap and dosent sound 
like you are wanting to cut rock  ie agate etc with it  Steve
