Confused
I actually burned up the saws, but just $30 Skil saws. If you jam or overload the blade on a circular saw or angle grinder it will damage the motor because they dont have protection like a table saw. 

All the pros use gas saws to cut flagstone but they are $1000 and I can only finish 2 or 3 pieces per day because they fit like a puzzle so rental not an option. Also neighbors would go ballistic on the noise. 

However, I noticed there are now some heavy duty electric masonry saws but even those need a 20A breaker - pros probably won't rely on this either because cant guarantee 20A breaker at the home site.
