Maybe what we need is an approach that casts steel anchors in the concrete and then when (...not if ?? ) the casting separates
fill the voids with epoxy composite. This is not to say that granite won't work and may be a better approach.
It is nice to dream but must get the conventional machine working with servos first. Only a few more weeks. (maybe).
