Hey champ, your work is AMAZING! But, given 20 years in the industry, how easy would it be for Ancient Egyptians to make square angles in granite and smooth surfaces using only copper tools? Keep up the great work!
Copper tools would be nearly impossible given our traditional way of using the hardest material to cut a less harder material. Sonic drilling and tuning forks could've been their methods instead. I fabricate granite countertops for a living, and we use diamond abrasives and diamond infused blades and core bits combined with high carbon steel. Water helps the removal of material but isn't necessary with granite. It only helps the chipping of marble and porcelain materials. Ninety degree angles are a breeze with a proper cup wheel. Copper tools under high heat and friction or even water cooled wouldn't stand a chance against the rose quartz used at the ancient sites, it's too soft.
Can you make a video of making a statue from granite or basalt without any modern day tools, just like the egyptians supposed to make statues weighing tons, but then smaller. They used bronze chisels hahah thank you i enjoyed the video!
Came for the granite sculpting. Left wondering if there's any videos left on youtube that isn't meant to push some kind of gender or race based agenda.
