My neighbor is in sort of the same situation, but he's putting in a
driveway.
I can tell you what he's doing (he's a contractor)
He's using a gas powered mason circular saw
and then he is using a jackhammer
I think he is cutting grooves then jack hammering between them
the pile of ruble looks like mid size flat pieces
