CEO, Capstone Holdings Corp. (NASDAQ: CAPS) · Managing Director, Brookstone Partners · Virginia Abrasives Board Member

About

Matt Lipman is CEO of Capstone Holdings Corp., a NASDAQ-listed company (CAPS), and Managing Director at Brookstone Partners. He serves on the board of Virginia Abrasives, one of the largest U.S. manufacturers of diamond blades, cut-off wheels, and grinding tooling for the concrete cutting industry.

Concrete Cutting Pro publishes his working knowledge of the industry — the bond science, job-site tradeoffs, and product reality that contractors need when picking tooling. The site exists because most concrete cutting content online is written by content mills with no operator experience. This one isn't.

Disclosure

Virginia Abrasives products are recommended on this site where they match the job. When a competitor (Husqvarna, MK Diamond, Norton, Pferd, Stadea, POLISHSURF) makes a better product for a specific application, that brand is recommended instead. Matt's board relationship with Virginia Abrasives is disclosed on every article that recommends a VA product. Amazon affiliate links support the site; the full affiliate disclosure and editorial guidelines cover how that works and why it doesn't affect which products are recommended.

What Matt Writes About

• Diamond blade selection — bond hardness, segment geometry, material matching
• Cut-off wheel economics — when abrasive wins, when diamond wins
• Grinding cup wheel systems — coating removal, surface prep, polishing prep
• Concrete polishing — grit progression, densifier timing, mirror-finish technique
• Silica dust safety — OSHA Table 1 compliance, respirator selection, dust extraction
• Tool-specific compatibility — Stihl, Husqvarna, DeWalt, Milwaukee, Makita
