Cutting fire bricks to 1inch thickness Hey all, for a mini project I'm doing, I need a handful of firebricks that are 1 inch thick. I can buy a box from bunnings, but I already have some 2inch thick fire bricks, wondering if it's feasible to cut them? I've got an angle grinder, circular saw and mitre saw, but no masonry/diamond tipped blades (yet). What's the best option that will allow me to cut a 2inch thick brick into a reasonably flat 1inch brick using these tools? Or do I just take the easy route and buy a box of inch thick bricks? I'd prefer to learn, and buy a new blade, if it's feasible and comes out at <$100; otherwise I'll just buy the box.
Thanks

Personally I'd just buy the bricks the thickness you need.
Cutting firebricks isn't an easy job to do well and I'd not want to tackle it with a hand held anything.

Cutting fire bricks to 1inch thickness can be hard to cut as they are pretty dense, you really need a brickies wet saw
