knapping video i put together
« on: June 30, 2012, 11:21:32 pm »
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dZaabyQKiMM

here is the link to the first one, there is actually 4 parts to it.  if you give it a watch, click on my other videos icon to find the other parts.  i start from a small spall and finish with a point.  kinda lengthy between all for but it would be a lot like sitting down watching someone do one start to finish.  have to admit its not my best point, but i wasnt going to start filming a whole new one!  shows my goofy lap style   thanks for looking..lol if you do- Ryan

Lots of great info, thanks Ryan 

I'd be interested in you showing how you shape the antler tools.

Ryan that was really a very good demo on ABO. I am going to try to make a couple also. When I work copper I work on the pad but with antler I hold it. I am not sure why. Anyway were there more videos other that the one?

Awesome Vids Gill!  I watched them all @ work.  Loved em!  I liked the alternate flaking you were doing in #3 on the lap.  I'll give that lap style a test run.  thanks, dpg
