Clovis fluting resolved
« on: March 27, 2013, 07:09:08 pm »
I haven't made many fluted points in a long time so with a little tweaking and remembering how I got it... almost as exciting as when I first learned how...lol...

You really got to offset and isolate the nipple really good... if you want the flute to travel a long ways it needs to be well isolated and abraded... maybe I can show you how to set up a nipple..lol...I'm talking about knapping here...

I would love to see your nipple. Knapping of course.
