How To Install A Natural Stone Patio

What happens here

To create a tight and custom fit around the natural, irregular fire pit boulders, use a specialized scribing tool. This tool allows for precise marking of the paver's contours against the boulder. Once marked, use a concrete saw to cut the pavers, creating a 'soldier course' (pavers laid on their narrow side) that seamlessly integrates with the fire pit. Mortar will be used to fill joints later.

Goal: Scribe and cut pavers to fit perfectly around the irregular shapes of the fire pit boulders.
