Some of JohnT's napping since the Classic
« on: June 07, 2010, 09:42:20 am »
JohnT came down this weekend to pick up his prize from the Classic,I ask what he had been up to and he went to his truck and came out with case he has been busy,he is the kind that will get in a kick,might be knives or bows or leather work and that is all he will do for a while.These are nice and thought I would share.The picture ant to good ,got a little glare but you can see most pretty good.

Thats what I like about this primitive stuff...For the most part everyone is sharing, giving, and compassionate about their work.  I met Bob for the first time and he was all of that and then some.  I have said it before Pappy and I will say it again.  Tennessee hear I come!  I cant wait to meet you.  I talk to Shannon every now and again and he claims that I wont want to leave!  The man in the post does some great Knapping.  I cant wait for the day I can achive that level of performance.  Thanks Pappy and have a good day!

I've really enjoyed watching and listening to John T in the pit the last two years at the Classic. I've picked up some very helpful advice that I revisit when I'm stuck with a piece of rock. Those are some great points!
