Splitting Stone

I´v been messing around with a technique I stumbled upon on the web, where you only use one wedge, therefore ends up with a more desirable stone with minimal drill marks. Beware these examples are only to prove it works, I know I have a lot of drill marks on these stones.

Sweet stone videos u have been putting out! I’m just starting to get into this stuff, very interesting, do u think u could do a video showing how to go from a chunk of rock down into natural stone veneers? Thanks, keep it up!

Hi! Thanks for commenting. I would love to make that kind of video.
Keep in mind I´m no professional but I´v gathered some knowledge during my years.
When it comes to stone veneer I guess you would want it quite thin to manage the weight. And to be able to do this with granite you simply need the right stone, and for me, finding this stone is not impossible, but I don´t stumble upon them very often. And what your looking for is a stone with very visible grain lines, all running in the same direction, don´t worry about how to spot it, because most of the time it´s very easy to tell.
I only speak for granite, I have never worked with any other stones.
