Abstract
Apparatus and methods of processing fiber-cement workpieces to form fiber-cement shake panels. One embodiment of such a method comprises positioning a cured fiber-cement workpiece over an anvil plate having at least one slot and driving a cutting blade along a straight, vertical path to pass a cutting edge of the cutting blade through the workpiece. The process can optionally include coating the fiber-cement panels before installing the fiber-cements panels on a wall.
