Keep knappin . Everything will fall into place. Once you learn to read the stone & how to manipulate the stone knapping gets a little easier. Remember it's just a rock until the final flake is removed.

That's a good looker, but I feel compelled to comment. It seems that some people think this flintknapping thing is for everyone. I've seen lots of people dabble with it and very few ever find their way back out. KNAPPING IS NO JOKE! Do not play around with this stuff you WILL get addicted! This stuff is worse than crack and I wouldn't want to see you end up like the rest of us. If this is your first time,  chalk it up as something done and put your back to it and walk away. If you don't, then tomorrow maybe too late. I'm sorry for being so harsh, I just hate seeing folks wreck their lives over these pesky little rocks! 

Have fun with your addiction! ;D >:D
