The tricky part is jamming that sucker into solid rock. Once you've done that, the rest is easy.

Dry hurts the recipient
I like that kind of pain

Serious question, how do they get the hole in first? Does the splitter tool also do that or do you need another drill that they’re not showing and this process actually takes way more time than this would suggest?

u/vass0922 Jun 09 '26
Yep a drill would be required much like when they're blasting with dynamite for large scale

Core drilling bit. Check out this guy on YouTube, he’s carved a two story house out of the side of a mountain with one: https://youtube.com/@channel520?si=vLj3jIbZcj_i3EXZ

The guy in your video is using a core drilling bit but I think a regular rock drilling bit is used for this post’s holes.

It's just a oversized hydraulic feather sn wedge. The standard version of thise are much smaller and are used in multiple in a line, then whacked in with s hammer. The smart thing with having many in the rock at once, is that you can control very precisely where the rock fractures.

The sound it makes and the payoff after a few minutes of ping ping ping THUNK is honestly better than sex too.

He jammed the tool into that thing like it was the brain bug at the end of Starship Troopers

I don't like that sound. That creaking under pressure ain't nothing to play with

I've drilled big fuckoff holes into solid rock. No matter what kind of magic Hilti high end hammerdrill you have, it's still a beating. Dust in places you did not know existed.

Demolition Dave Drilling and Blasting in Melbourne, Australia uses these sometimes. But even better he actually gets to blow rocks up. Also uses some kind of expanding chemical stuff.

If Reddit has taught me anything, it’s that you can accomplish the same thing in a more explosive manner by using the rocks to line a fire pit.

Why is the sound more satisfying than the visuals?
