Diamond chainsaw

The problem: A couple of door holes had to be cut in "Kuntsi", a museum for modern art in Vaasa / Finland.
Cutting the 63cm(25") thick brick walls from the inside was not an option, because of the noise and the water. And the upper cut was only 12cm (5") wide and 60cm(24") deep, so a normal cutting disk couldn't do it.

The solution: We used the ICS Diamond Chainsaw, with a 63cm (25") blade. The wall was cut from the outside about 60cm (24") deep, so the water didn't go inside the building. With the Diamond chainsaw it is possible to cut 11cm(4") wide cuts, and 75cm(30") deep.
After the cutting, it was easy to make the holes with a hand held electric breaker.
