On March 16 and 17, 2019, the Dry Stone Conservancy conducted two one-day stone dressing clinics. Participants learned some of the finer points of working with and shaping stone. Plugs and feathers, wedges, saws, chisels, hammers, and stone breakers were utilized on each day. The participants did a wonderful job and we look forward to more stone dressing clinics.
