I cut out about a 4 foot by 16 foot square with my grinder and blade (DeWalt XP Diamond blade (DW4701)) today. The asphalt is about 1 1/2 inches thick.
I did not complete very much today but my grinder was over heating and I think maybe my pickaxe would really help more then a hammer or my hammer drill.
My concrete bay at the carwash is a little short (30 feet) and I need to make some concrete footers for the entry gate. I need to cut the asphalt then dig it up to pour the concrete footers (3 feet from the concrete bay). I am not really sure how to do this but I purchased a DeWalt XP Diamond blade (DW4701) for my grinder. My plan is to cut the asphalt with the grinder then pick axe and shovel the asphalt out?
At least I thought it was a good product when I was bidding on them. Actually, I thought it was a really good deal if you wanted some sds drill bits. I got 17: maybe you want to purchase some from me?

I purchased these from 
toolsandmorellc (ebay name) and she owns a store close by called “Tools & More” in Alabaster. I have been getting my cones stolen alot recently so I purchased some “Temporarily Closed” tape. At least it will be cheaper when they break or steal it.
