Three Pin Lewis Demonstration
A three pin lewis, also known as a dovetailed lewis, St Peter's keys, or a Wilson bolt fits into a dovetailed seating in the top of a building stone. It is made from three pieces of rectangular-section steel held together with a shackle, allowing connection to a lifting hook. The middle leg is square throughout its length, while the outer legs are thinner at the top, flaring towards the bottom. Held together, the three legs thus form a dovetail shape.
They are now illegal in the UK but were still in use when I started my career.

Lewis pins = back saver 💪#bricklayerssocialclub
Using Lewis pins on some Portland stone,
These Lewis pins were suitable to lift 500kg and the stone weight was 220kg so was more than sufficient.
When using Lewis pins ensure you drill a deep enough hole to accommodate the pin clean the hole out and be careful not to jolt or remove any of the pressure on the pins.
As always make sure you and anyone else working around you is not underneath.
