@@twestgard2 go start your own.. We will all connect at some point

And you need a rod with plenty of mass... My first thought was to just use a big ol nail, but said nail will turn into a projectile...

@@twestgard2 🤣🤣🤣

That's a good solution during half the year in the North.

Or fill hole with expanding grout, which is designed for that. It's quick and fairly cheap.

very clever. I have seen this technique done in quarries with pins and a hammer. But letting dowels create the load is a lot less effort.

@@TheWtfnonamez which load? Oh right take the load.. I see.. using screw and pieces of dowel instead of long spike..

While adding water to the hole and letting it sink in might work to improve the fracturing of the rock... Water is *not* incompressible, especially compared to rock.

@@samuelmellars7855 water is very much do incompressible.

Those charges aren't waterproof. Don't wanna get them wet, they won't work. Water can seep in through the crimp and totally ruin them.

@@cr4zyj4ck the idea is to let the water soak into the rock and the blank is only there for a minute at most. Soaking the powder shouldn't be an issue.

@@samuelmellars7855 water is absolutely not compressible

Закалить пруток можно и нагревая его в костре, закаливать в любом старом машинном масле или растительном масле. Возьмите пружину или торсион 8 мм. От старого автомобильного амортизатора например 2евро. Болванку (утяжилитель, груз) можно сделать из кувалды или залить свинцом банку и закрепить на прутке обычными хомутами. Это груз чтоб при отдаче не улетал штырь ( пруток), как снаряд. You can temper the rod by heating it in a fire, temper it in any old engine oil or vegetable oil. Take a spring or torsion bar of 8 mm. From an old car shock absorber, for example, the price is 2 euros. A blank (weighting, load) can be made from a sledgehammer or pour lead into a jar and fix it on a rod with ordinary clamps. This is a load so that the pin (rod) does not fly away like a projectile when recoiling. Sorry for my English.

You know what your are talking about man..! 😀👍

Couldn't agree with you more just grow some balls and learn how to swing a sledgehammer. But I understand these types of guys that keep their hands well moisturized

@@royalt9615 work smarter not harder

Hard way us to drill 3 holes instead of one and pound in metal wedges which is the easy part in that.

@@ReasonAboveEverything Nah, hard way is with just a sledge hammer lol

Drill holes by hand and put wooden nails in them, then pour water into them 😄 it's also one of my goals for my bushcraft project ^^

i burned out the motor on an electric jackhammer and blistered my hands the hard way, whilst making minimal progress lol

This is ONE way, reasonably easy but not necessarily the cheapest or the safest option. Use a larger drill bit (12 to 20mm, the larger the better but depends what your tool can handle), than insert a dry wooden stick of the exact same diameter into the hole and start pouring water on top of it. It takes a while but it will eventually split the boulder.

Use demolition grout?

I'm pretty sure I read your comment before watching this, went and youtubed expanding grout, bought some, successfully used it and was actually very surprised by the result. So I guess I'm back here to watch the video

Yeah, great if the rock is fully compact, but if it's already cracked inside (or a more brittle type of material) you may end up with shards flying around like shrapnel.

@@Dr_V Hence the Blanket

I believe Kadlec is a Czech surame, not Russian. I might be wrong

For some reason the Finns love explosives as well. Must be the proximity.

There are a lot of people who just don't know that drilling requires oiling. They don't tend to stock oil in the drill section. Deliberately?

@@carpediemarts705 good point.. and yea, most likely.. why would hardware stores want your tools to have longer lives?

Good point

Yes, it is a .22 cal blank, … and it is the percussion from the cap that will break the rock, … having a good, concrete, rock bit is essential, but one need not necessarily have to drill that deep into the boulder, as if after the shells are placed, place a straw, or some type of flexible tube, down into the hole, fill it with water, & place some type of an insulating accouterment in the path of the blast, … that rock will split just like a jeweler cutting diamonds, … they use a “face drill” in the underground coal mines, then tamp the explosive, into place, & then fill the balance of the depth of the hole with a flex bag, and fill it with water, tamp it in tighter, then blast, … the whole “face” of the wall will shatter, then they come in with the mining loader, which claws pretty much everything up off of the floor in front of the face, & then loads it onto a loader transport, … or they buy a miner which hydraulically removes the face, with either a ball type miner, or a drum type miner, … it has the crab claws that rake everything into the back of the mining machine’s container until a loader gets there, a good miner operator can make anywhere between 15, to 70 feet into the face each day, if there is a loader ready to get into position, a few minutes after the previous loader leaves, … depending upon the type of strata they are removing, … then, there is also a short wall miner operation, where the roof, of the mine, is allowed to collapse in behind itself as they mine through while following a vein of whatever ore they are attempting to remove, … it is all, very, very, dangerous/hazardous work, … and more miners have been killed, over the eons, than any other trade, … I would surmise, because the planet is not so hospitable to those looking to disturb Momma Nature’s disposition’s, … breaking rock, depends on its composition, hardness factors, & the locations where you are trying to extract it from, … such as the permafrost areas in the far north of our planet, where methane is being released due to global warming, … of which I do believe that mankind has had a larger part in the resurgence of warming our planet by our movement towards progress, ever forward, yet losing the planet over a few inches of progress is most disturbing, … perhaps, one day our governments will ban all activities regarding the use of any types of fossil fuels, and restrain mining operations to the untold numbers of asteroids in space, … bringing only the proper types of ores in/around our planet, until they could fully make all operations deplorable in space, …

To help not lose your wedges, paint them with flourescent paint so you can find them easily. Then after every break, account for your tools each time before someone distracts you and you forget to find them.

has anyone ever put a leash of wire with a flag attached on their wedges?

@@UpcomingJedi has anyone ever put a leash of wire with a flag attached on their wedges?

There are new ones that use a thick rubber o-ring to hold all three parts together, but the fluorescent paint idea sounds good, too.

Eso sí la roca es blanda ... porque dónde vivo hay piedras de río que son durísimas y no le entra una barrena.

When I was a kid I had one go off in my hand when I was prying open the crimp. A lot of unburned powder peppered my hand. I was lucky I didn't lose any fingers.

I bought a kit similar to this and am afraid to use it. I have lots of granite rocks to break and fear something going wrong. Instead I try drilling which is very very difficult and then use the wedge and feathers. Am I stupid?

@@cayrick just put on more gear, and helmets and stuff, you will feel safe and be safe xd

@@cayrick You can run this remotely if you want to be safe. Just setup the steel dovel, build frame you can setup accurately on the ground and then ether just release sledge that is mounted on bearings, or for repeated hits build pulley system that allows you to reset the sledge after each time it hits. That weight on the dovel is pretty required or you turn this into improvised mortar and might shoot the dovel out, then again rock is out to give up before "chamber" pressure get high enough to get that steel rod moving. For bigger bangs maybe 9mm version, though getting hit into primer might be issue.

Once you knuckleheads try breaking rock the HARD WAY for a few weeks, you will be very appreciative of anything that can do the job faster or easier...

@chris chris well if you never broke a rock, you probably play paintball with a controller.

It’s a very small caliber, eye safety is about all you need, having busted up thousands of stones as a mason it’s not very dangerous

The heavy rubber conveyor belt piece they've got is all the protection they need from these blasts. The powder charge in each little case is about equal to a .22 long rifle. And the heavy weight on the end keeps the rod from becoming a projectile.

That’s a great idea but would take all the excitement out of the process!🤣👍

Google Ramset 22

you can buy these at the hardware store they're used for specialty nail guns

Ever broken large stones with a pick? I have. That stone would take hours of hard work. Of course a > $150,000 excavator would be easier (depending on access) but that is also a complicated tool.

@@johnnycampbell3422 I understand, but how many viewers do you think they have a lathe (and the knowledge to operste it), a forge, a sanding machine lithe that, etc. And how many a peak (and the knowledge to work it). It is a great way,but not an easy one

@@juanistella8469 I could buy the parts at ace hardware and build it with JB weld and a hammer, so, no need to good to fancy with a driving/ firing rod with a head weight and some rubber mat.

But then you would be changing the method. Still, this guy is not buying anything, he is building the tools for his method. Also, I asume (but I might be wrong) that you live in USA. Believe me when I tell you that getting some things is not that easy in many other places. I am from Argentina. Arround here, getting (legaly) a simple box of ammo is quite difficult.

Thanks for your comments anyway.

@@juanistella8469 correct you are. I don't know the access to blank cartridges in your area or even a piece of rebar or steel rod. Not to mention the portable drill and the bit. What is the easiest way you have moved (or could) such stones? Anyway, best regards to you from Texas.
