The channel is for a SWA mains cable to the garage "Said garage once complete will be free to use to all my buddies from the WYIOC... valeting, cocking around with ICE, oil changes, brakes and so on... so if you don't have somewhere to fettle something it will be available one completed"

Anyhow back to the channel, I need to get a 10mm SWA mains cable across some concrete, about 7-8m run it needs cutting about 3" wide and the concrete is about 3-4" deep... Even with the diamond blade in the grinder it was a real pain... the blade on the Stihl saw was knacker and we didn't have another so had to make do with the grinder... **** me concrete is HARD!!! gave upo after just 1m...
So any idea's offers of assistance are taken seriously... if someone could give me a price to do it that would be great...
