Dalton from a slab
« on: April 21, 2010, 08:40:49 pm »
Made this tonight from a slab of green sheen obsidian, its for a fellow worker who is retiring next week.
I always bring my stuff in to work for the guys to check out, today he asked me for a point I remembered I had this slab
stashed away so I decided to make him something from it. This is what I cam up with after seeing the pics I need to fix the symetry
just a little, I think he will like it.

Nice looking point looks like damascas.
If we can't help each other what is the point of being here?

Nice work Dana. That is a real purty point.  Your knapping is really coming along well.

Nice work Dana. Love the look of the material.
Life is not a journey to the grave with the intentions of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body. But rather to slide in sideways, thoroughly used up, totally worn out and loudly proclaiming....WOW WHAT A RIDE!!
