A stone carver and a computer graphics expert in France have collaborated to produce a CD containing 300 illustrations to use to produce computer-generated masks for sandblasting.

Designed with the memorial masonry trade in mind, these graphics have been specifically created for best sandblasted results.

The CD has been produced and is being marketed by a company called Art Sable of Elne, France, who already have a distributor in France and Belgium and say they will be talking to Odlings MCR from the UK and a German distributor during the Stone+tec exhibition in Nuremberg, although it can also be ordered on their website (see below).

The CD contains three collections of illustrations: Religion, Decorations and Sports & Leisure. It is currently priced at Ä442 (£280).
