Hi, my name s dan and im a knapper

This dang knapping thing is as addictive as a crack coated twinkie,  I took breaks from work to knap 4 times today.  I greatly reduced my stash, I wonder if. y mom will go dig some stuff out of her creek for me......
I have nothing witty to say.......

Hi Dan, hi Jamie, my name is Don(Donny) & I've been addicted to silica rocks for 8 yrs. To make it worst I've gotten my kids addicted as well. My wife managed to save my 14 yr old but my 9yr old & my 7 yr old are addicts as well. We cant even go to a steak house without walking through its rock garden.Thankfully no body has said anything to the crazy man & his kids picking up rocks from it.

Hi Dan, Jamie, and Don. My name is Mark and I'm an addict. My son also who is four is on his way to being one. We were at church camp all week and every ten minutes he would come to me with a rock and ask if it would work as a hunting point. I am proud. He did smash his finger while trying to use too use a big hammerstone on a little piece of chert.
