Wow ,that was ambitious but you made it happen ! cutting stone that large is a labor of love,as I watch your videos I am breaking stone with non of the good chisel and wedges you have ,no stores nearby sell them unfortunately ,but thank you I am learning a lot from your techniques !

I am an occassional rock breaker and use 5/8 wedge and feathers to clear off a lot I own. Just want the rocks gone. Almost all my rocks are basalt (super hard) and respond well to a W&F tap session. However recently I have encountered a few rocks which seem to be hard (igneous) and no matter how many W&F's I put in a row, they just bottom out, and the best I get is a few small rock chips which seem to be the skin or top layer. It could take me months to destroy one rock. I believe the rock is permeable or porous and as I drive the wedges the rock internally deforms and simply absorbs the stress witthout breaking. I am stymied. Have you encountered this and do you have any suggestions. Thanks!

I'm just throwing this out there... your a mason with lots of rock that you can cut and move with your own machinery..... why not build retaining walls where needed and infill with stone to widen and build up your access road to your quarry so your able to move higher and or bigger volume?

Any tips for splitting granite stone that is mostly buried but protrudes above the surface? I find that the rock tends to break off in thin layers and the crack does not migrate downwards. I’m in VT as well, NEK.

I loved it. I loved everything about it. I enjoy watching the stones being shaped and placed just right. It's truly fascinating thinking of how much has been built with stone. From farm walls to cathedrals, it truly is an art form.

Don't be brainwashed by the system ideology that wants to enslave you into a monetary jail in which you'll only build your own walls. Nobody gets saved by works from which he gets paid for ; but only through grace. The system in which people are unconsciously kept in spiritual captivity is a fair ground ruled by carnies. It's an attractions park in which people are free willingly paying to get entertained and entertain themselves. The merry-go-around is never too attractive enough : It carries you and spins you around while playing loud music ; then drops you out all staggering at the same place you embarked. And time has gone taking away all your illusions...

Sir, may I congratulate you on your ability to talk to the granite block, and in return, she talks to you in a manner which you can understand. Well done. and all the best in enjoying your wonderful work. I think it would be be wonderful to try and model the wavefront from those impulses you initiate in how they travel through the block to cause the stresses along the contour which you desire. Those impulses are not as innocent as they sound! Well done once again,

Can I ask why you do not lay the stone with the cutting plane horizontal and put the feathers and wedges on all 4 sides rather than just 3? And... how do you mask the drilled holes for the finished stone?
