    Aside from just cutting, if someone wanted to do some granite "carving" what would you suggest? I'm guessing some sort of diamond tipped high speed rotary cutter with a water nozzle? Is there any particular tooling that works better than the others?

    I haven't seen much of granite carving because it is very hard and if you want detailed outcome the tools will wear very fast, usually in granite things are sand blasted. In marble you can do engraving carving cuz it's softer.
