Evan of Rock of Ages is shown here using the plug and feather method of stone splitting, which involves drilling a series of round holes in the rock spaced every six inches or so apart. Once the holes are drilled, two shims called feathers or half-rounds are placed in the hole and a wedge called a plug is placed between the two feathers. Using a sledgehammer, the plugs are then struck with hammer in sequence. An audible tone from the wedges changes to a 'ringing sound' when the wedges are tight.
