splitting a boulder using the new style feather and plugs | Devin Devine

New style feather and plugs!




I'm liking these a lot so far. Have split a few dozen boulders and thick wall stones since buying these plugs a couple months ago. They have worked great every time so far. The feathers don't have the ears on their side to get all bent up. The ringlet/thick rubber bands keep the feathers and plugs neatly together.....no more routing around through my stuff trying to find a plug that's the right size to go with a set of feathers--they are all kept together nicely. Most importantly--they split them stones.




Always having the correct size plug to go with the correct size feather, and the feathers never being all bent out of shape, makes stone splitting faster and more enjoyable.


UPDATE: A year after purchasing them and the rubber bands are still connected. These hold up, well.
