Here I am in Taranaki *blush*, splitting some Taranaki Andersite.
I am working at developing video documentation, but my camera has not sound and my usb mp3 recorder broke.
I am camera shy, so it add's pressure to working, having to set up camera's mic's as well as the gear I require for the job. Still I think I'm getting better at it.

poor rock!

you could also use wood spikes... put them in the holes and then pour water onto them and they expand! thats how they did it in the boise penn... so the prisoners were less dangerous :) water and wood dowels as opposed to spikes and hammers :P
-

sometime railrode spikes

Would look nice on either side of a walkway or driveway. The two halfs rounded side up ofcoarse.

cool! Yes, but you can also split a large rock with a hammer

@MrKriss777 Drilling holes and wedges makes the splitting easy. Just using a hammer would only break off small bits.
