For years building dry laid stone foundations I used a 7 pound paver hammer manufactured overseas. The only issue was when it was time to retire my old faithful mallet I could no longer find a replacement. : ( I began my search for finding an amazing hammer with some serious weight to really penetrate a blow to natural stone set in earth for the foundation. The best part in making the investment into one of Pave Tech hammers is that you can always replace the heads as seen below. Making for money well spent!! WIth the generous sponsorship to Rockin Walls Training Center you can "Try Before You Buy" at one of the many workshops.

Pave Tech makes more then just hammers. Yes that's right if you haven't looked at the website this is just one more item. I can't say this is any thing I could or would use for dry laid stone construction. But for any work with pavers this is a must have. See more of their adhesives www.pavetech.com/adhesives/adhesi.htm
Features
~ Super Premium Adhesive
~ This is a great adhesive for step veneering and freeze-thaw areas.
~ Application range: 35 degrees to 110 degrees F.
~ Cleanup with mineral spirits before dry.
~ 50 linear feet of bead per tube.
Application
This adhesive can be applied to wet or saturated material so it is perfect for late season application. Great for areas subjected to heavy loads like step treads and pool coping. Type III adhesive foams during curing and will fill up to 1/4 inch. Allow 24 hours curing time before traffic is allowed. 75 percent strength in 24 hours, 95 percent strength in 48 hours. Substrate should be dust and dirt free. If extremely dry, spraying with water on surfaces before application will help adhesive cure properly.
