« on: March 10, 2013, 09:57:15 pm »
OK its my second but I wanted u to look I made this Pedernales point for Mr.Tower.  I made it with a short moose billet and a small hammer stone. So it has a few steps and hinges but overall it clean.  I say its my first because. I only made a few points Abo... Thank for looking!!!

I need to get it under control as for some reason I get a lot of over shots...but I like the fact using a big moose billet takes off wide flakes making reduction very quick... just gotta make some adjustments to get it right...

That is a dang fine looking Pedernales point. I appreciate it, but what's it for. It took me 7 boxes & a month to get square on our deal. Someone in the USPS must have a lot of stone!  Tower

Tower I'm not happy over the fact that that happened.  I wished that they made it here and if someone out there took them then the rock gods will deal with them...I appreciate all that you did to make it right you are a good person!!! Now this point isn't a paper thin Tower  special  but I like to collect points from friends.  Thanks again  Tower!!!

Tower , I think you've got a crooked post office or something! You had the same problem with the Xmas gift exchange .
