    What is the best way to cut the cinder type of firebrick. I think it would be tough with a circular saw, no good way to hold down the brick. Can I get a blade for my table saw?

    Thanks to everyone for the responses. I am going to pickup a diamond wheel for my angle grinder. It should work fine for my needs.
