A few Cahokias and an Agee
« on: April 10, 2013, 08:10:24 pm »
I've been slowly workin through my stash of Kaolin lately. It's some really killer material but is mostly found in small cobbles. I think that's why the most common point type made from this stuff is Cahokias and the like.  ;) It knaps like butter when heated correctly and comes in a wide variety of colors as you can see. It feels good to knock out some tiny little points from time to time. I get hung up on making big points all the time and forget how challinging these thin little points can be. Here's a couple pics. Thanks fer lookin  :o

I like them all. Very colorfull points. I'm piling some coral for you and I'll be heat treating it as soon as I finally shoot a bird. Turkey season is starting to look like Deer season. :(

Heck yea!! Nice job on them little buggers! Like the different colors in that rock. That's one of the big things I like out of my rock is all the color variance.

Another great batch by WillH!  I like that one on your index finger, is that the Agee?  You can keep that one for me until the Classic  >:D

Great job Will, always like your posts, dpg
