Fun with coral
« on: July 27, 2010, 08:49:26 am »
This is some more of the coral i got when i was down in FL with Eddie.
I am having allot of fun with this stuff, its not easy to work but makes killer looking points.
I'm also having fun learning the fl point types.

Very cool material and super nice work.

Jesse, those are some great looking points. Not much material out there prettier than that coral, either.

 Man, Jesse, you have those Florida points down pat. That is a killer looking Simpson and you are nailing those Newnans.

Jesse, not sure yet. That Saturday is Tina's birthday. Hate to run off to a knap-in then. I might try to at least come down for part of it.

Pretty darn nice.

I don't do a lot of knapping yet still have a few that I haven't hafted.  What do you guys that do a lot of knapping do with all the stuff you make?

Mark, I sell all my work.
 I have a page on flintknappers.com
http://www. flintknappers.com/store.php?sid=NDk%3D

and i also go to knap-ins were i sell my stuff. Having my knapping be a source of income it motivates me to knapp more and strive to make the best points i can.
