To augur is to predict or indicate. A black cat passing in front of you is said to augur bad luck, but if you love cats you can choose to believe that it augurs good luck instead. In the past, when you said you would augur the future it meant you would predict it. That form of augur is rarely used today, but the sense of prediction â connected to an object or event â remains. Dark clouds augur a rainstorm.
My supplier can supply 3m concrete gravel boards-have no idea if I am going to be able to lift one though! If the gravel boards are level, but the arris rails slope then you are correct about having to cut the close boards to fit-I hadn't thought about that. Will have to talk to my supplier again.Cheers.y supplier can supply 3m concrete gravel boards-have no idea if I am going to be able to lift one though!

Score-and-Snap. The simplest way to cut cement backer board is to score the surface and snap the sheet along the scored line, similar to the way you'd cut drywall. In fact, you can use a drywall utility knife to score backer board, but a better option is a carbide-tipped scoring tool.ere's how to use the scoring tool: Lay the backer board on a flat surface and mark the cut line with a carpenter's pencil. (A regular pencil will become too dull from drawing lines on such a hard surface.) Set a straightedge, such as a 4-foot level or perfectly straight board, on the cut line.
