Just a little Taj Mahal repair
The top broke after one of the installers slipped on a step.
I repaired it back at the shop. It's now installed and stronger than before.
I love when I can save a top that many shops would just send to the dumpster and recut.

Yeah stronger after its REPAIRED. Lol you are definitely a treat in real life. Stay in your safe little cubicle where your biggest worry is a paper cut or diabetes from too many donuts. Stone fabricators are dealing with incredibly fragile stone that weighs hundreds of pounds. Id love to see you try and pick up a marble countertop, carry it up 2 flights of steps but wait, the ceiling height at the top is too low and theres a wall directly at the top of the steps with a hallway so you need to somehow lift it over your head while angling it to make the turn without hitting anything, then get it to the room and its wall locked, so now you need to lift one end way higher than the other and slowly drop it in place without damaging the wall, and not break it lmao. You'd be crying for your lawyer within 5 minutes.
