Something that I know about good workmen, they never leave their tools behind

You're missing the bigger question here: if these marks were made with slow speed hand tools why would they keep cutting into the stone long after the "blade" was deep into it and how much time did it add to the whole process? cutting deep grooves (that have no purpose) into basalt with a copper blade- how long does that take? remember we have time constraints here.

Well one reason would be stumbling onto the pyramids already created from centuries or thousands of years before and wanting to take credit for it to bolster their rule and place in history???
And disassembling them to write graffitti in sealed chambers?

Well remember the rule of possession. Also if you move into a place arent you going to personalize it and decorate it? As for sealed chambers. think of it as a anchient safe.

Some people are so into their 'copper tool' theory, they just want to make it fit at any cost.
It's like cutting your toes off to fit a shoe.
Therein lies the problem. In order to prove that only simple copper tools were used, I need to see them being used as they were; meaning I'd like to see a group of people not only hewing the large stones from a quarry and send them up the Nile but then cutting them to size and heaving them up to place them.

Perhaps the gods destroyed all traces of their advanced existence before leaving us to our own devices...

to understand the purpose of the pyramid a mirror is placed at the apex ..extrapolation of passageways is made in the mirror image..the mirror is then rotated..the path unfolds.
as for the tools a cu chisel + harder stone...surely that would have taken several decades to 'smooth' the edges of 2 mill blocks (apparently all building was done in 20 yrs)

...and how exactly were the heavier black stones in the 'kings chamber' put in place if the pyramid was built inside out

...and the red 'paintings/figurines' who or what are they?

i do not refute that the complex as it stand def had --some --of the work done with primitive tools am jus sayin that the earlier pyramid builders,those who were really keen on celestial alignment ,ratios in nature(pi,phi) should not be forgotten.

It is simply impossible to produce this kind of work with ‘Copper Chisels’ and ‘Stone Pounders’
No it is not - there, I have as much evidence to show it is possible as you have to show it is not possible!

What about silicone bronze alloy ? Or some sort of acid dipped hemp rope use like a modern quarry cable-saw ?
Perhaps even some special process where crystals are grown on a hemp rope ??
Or even the hemp rope with thousands of quartz beads or some other abrasive... stepped iron beads could act like saw teeth.
