Paving
Q U A R R I E D S T O N E
The pavement of Kansas
yesteryears was quarried just like the building stones only in large
slabs. In the past these slabs were laid for sidewalks and last to this
day. Imagine pouring a four inch slab and laying four inches of stone on
top of that and you will have the rough equivalent of these old stone
walkways. This same thing is possible today. Instead of hauling them to
the site beneath a special lorie pulled by a team of mules we load and set
with a forklift and bobcat. Whether set with mules or set with hydraulics
the product is the same. A stone sidewalk that will last 200 years.
“A man who works with his hands is a laborer; a man who works
with his hands and his brain is a craftsman; but a man who works
with his hands and his brain and his heart is an artist.”
