Sorry but they can. Most of the things I’m pointing out are being already done by machines the machines are shopping cart sized, heavier to be sure, but not that big.

No don’t forget driving on the graves. In relatively short order the whole machine will way less than a thousand pounds, since you can move these 1200 pound stones around clearly that weight won’t be too high. And you won’t be crushing ornaments, we make cars that can park themselves now, avoiding ornaments is another already solved problem. It’s not going to be a monster machine.

Templates won’t actually be necessary, with the stone being carved by a machine the template will be digitized (which is how custom wheels are made in many bike shops now, just draw it in the software, and go have lunch).

Sorry bub, the technology already exists it just hasn’t been put together yet in a way cheap enough and portable enough. Just gotta get this machine:

mobile and you are replaced. It won’t be a monstrosity. It really is just that easy. sorry this seems to have damaged your ego. The good news is you’ve got at least 5 years probably closer to 10 to learn how to run that machine. Good luck.

You argue in absolute ignorance with a aplomb that is entertaining. When you start throwing around snotty familiarities and than name calling it becomes sublime.

If I want to learn how to work a machine that ETCHES images on to polished granite I’ll take a break from INSCRIBING stone and stop in at one of the many stone dealers I serve and get him to show me; that is if I’m looking to take a big pay cut. I can blast one half inch into solid granite in seconds. That joke of a unit you googled up could just about fog a mirror if you gave it all day. 115 Volts!? My dealers wouldn’t waste good piss urinating on that thing. By the way those dealers who give me so much work have stoneblast booths that can cut stone faster than I can and yet they give me the work and pay me anyway. Wow.
