I use a scrap about 12" X 18" for sharpening wood chisels using
wet/dry sandpaper. Post to rec.woodworking as might be some interest
there. Include your location in the post.

I just came across a place that regularly throws away granite.
Here's a couple of pieces:

And there's plenty of it.

It seems I could get a lot of pieces 1.25" thick, 30" wide, with varying
broken-off lengths (from would-be counters). There are lots of smaller
pieces too.

I don't have a wet saw, and I'm not familiar with laying stone, but I
suppose I could get one and learn.

What can I use this stuff for?
