Been a while since I've broke any rock
« on: November 02, 2011, 11:08:39 am »
and the last several time I've tried all I made was a pile of gravel.  We had the youth group over Sunday evening for a campfire and one of the kids that had shown interest in knapping before asked a few more questions.  So, I sat down beside him with a big obsidian flake and showed him the little bit that I know.  That kinda got the itch going again, so I brought my tools to work with me and knocked these 2 out during lunch the past couple of days.

 Good job on those two, Jonathan.

 If you have to pull the trigger, is it really archery?

Those are real nice i need to get me some obsidian and give it a try.  The only time i have messed with any was when i first got started and i broke every bit a guy gave me. 
Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of there country.

I'm flying out there today but the way they've tightened down at work it's harder than ever for me to get away just ask Lee Slickers ::).

If you can bring the bow with you.  There's some real good gamelands right around there.
