Thanks for that info Richard
In fact, this has spurred me on to buying a 9" angle grinder as my trusty old 4.5" is staggering quite rapidly towards the end of its life
Before you go and buy one, I have one looking for a good home.
Used once.

However, it looks like being a merely academic point now as the supplier has agreed to cut the gravel boards as required for no extra charge
Thanks for the ideas chaps
Good news that the supplier will do it for you.
But for future reference, a 4.5" diamond blade will cut 1.5" slabs without too much problem

If you have an angle grinder, just get a diamond blade to suit.

I know it's a stupid question, but what concrete are you cutting? And why?
Don't forget that you can get diamond blades quite cheaply to fit 4.5" & 9" angle grinders.
