Hope the fresh haul of new rocks inspires a new video.  Can't get enough of them (the videos)..  Love to watch them and they have improved my knapping enormously.

My wife has to work this weekend so i may just have to go on a run to the colorado river and see what i can turn up. then i will have to stop buy my little secret spot on the way back that is close to the house and see if some has rolled off the side of the hill.
Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of there country.

Just an update:

I have delayed posting knapping videos on youtube until I finish a set of Otzi style arrows.

The chert I got from Tower is awesome stuff!!  I've spalled some and I plan on cooking half of it.  The new roaster oven should arrive in a few days.

I should be able to post some knapping stuff this week....  stay tuned.
