I need a rock-crusher. I little one; hand operated. Looks like a giant (but still small) orange sqeezer. I don't even know if they're made anymore. I have seen them at gold museums. I don't even know what I should pay but try me. A picture of what you have is a must. Thanks. TTC
 
I used a length of 3" steel pipe with a screw on end cap. then I took my 3/4" drive breaker bar and used the handle end like a mortar and pestle. just hold onto the drive end and hammer away at the rock you need busted until it is to your specs. I suggest a good pair of gloves to keep from blistering your hands or buy a solid steel rod and use a hammer on the other end.

my 3/4" breaker bar did just fine.
