Granite slabs

[BWL]

In search of granite slabs for a tooling surface. I am looking for a supplier to supply multiple sizes in length and with, 1 1/2' to 2" to sell in my shop to my inventory. I live in Central Texas. Any help would be appreciated.

Grizzly tool company has reasonably priced granite slabs.

What area of central Texas? I get my slabs from a countertop place up the road, they give me drops for free when I ask nicely

Thanks for the reply! My shop is in Cleveland, Texas (well.... maybe not Central , but close Lol). I have tried countertop but, it is not thick enough for me. I'm a little heavy handed.

I also bought mine from a countertop place. They where willing to give me "cut off pieces" for free. But I wanted a specific dimension, and it wasn't that expensive as long as I was ok with cut and chamfered edges and not polished edges. And the edges are not sharp.

I got mine at one of the granite shops in town.  When I told them I just needed a piece for my bench to do leather work they showed me their cut offs and gave me a 24 X 30 inch piece for free.  I'm going to drop off a wallet that I have made for my appreciation .
