Kasco Stone Fabrication & Installation Tutorial Videos and More

This page is dedicated to our fellow natural stone fabricators and installers.  The video tutorials below are created by Master Fabricator and Kasco Stone owner, Scott McGourley or his employees.  These videos explain how we do things at our shop.  We do  not imply  that they are the only way to achieve a finished stone product but, what we we feel works best for us.  All comments, suggestions, and questions are welcome.  Please email Scott directly regarding any video tutorial featured here.  If you are a consumer, you are welcome to view these tutorials.  Granite fabrication and installation, however, is not a DYI (Do It Yourself) project, it is a skilled trade.  We recommend that you hire a professional stone fabricator and installer in your area..
