I know some of you may have seen this elsewhere, but I will post it here as well. This is a flame inlay we did. The strips in the pattern are for the customer to line his tires up w/ because the garage is very narrow. He has a '29 roadster in there........w/ flames on it!

How were the precise cuts in the pavers done? Sorry, not even the best can do that with a cut-off.

We used a table saw to get close then a 4" angle grinder to get closer then a 4" cup wheel to finalize. Just the inlay took 2 guys 6 hours.

Chris,
That looks great, this is the third time I have been to this thread to lust over those pictures. That kind of stuff takes some patience.

Yes the base is probably the most important part of a hardscape, but the cuts are what does it for me, its the first thing I look at on any job.

Great looking stuff.

Thanks James I appreciate it, but the real kudos go to my crew. I laid it out, but they did the hard part. I'm very lucky to have a foreman w/ an eye for detail.
