What is the peeling of thin layers of stone off a large rock is?

I am running into difficulty thinning the stones also. I can get the basic shape but then end up with a pregnant center that needs to be reduced to same thickness of rest of stone. Just bought special chisel (yeah, it's cheating but I worry more about efficiency than authenticity right now) that appears to have good results but MUST be aligned with grain ... and expect many failures, but some good, evenly distributed samples. Good Luck. SargeDude
