Geocache Description:


I Kättelvik har slipstenstillverkningen pågått i ungefär 100 år. Här har handhuggeriet hållit sig längst. I dag kan endast en handfull människor konsten att hugga en slipsten. For 100 år sedan kunde de flesta det.
Sandstenshuggeriet var en viktig näring för Sudret. Många livnärde sig så gott som helt på det. I dag sker tillverkningen av slipsten maskinellt i Burgsvik, med en tillverkning av 30-40.000 slipstenar om året.
Cachen er et pet-rör, så vänligen medtag en penna till loggningen.
