Chattanooga Tn stone
« on: October 07, 2013, 11:09:44 pm »
The 2nd weekend in January I will find myself in Chattanooga Tn. I realize it's going to be a lil colder than Texas up there. I'm asking if anyone knows of some stone in that area?  I'm figuring on spalling & shipping back to Tx. If I can find any. Tower

I'm sure there's some stuff up there, but the TN guys are probably thinking, "Texas is where all the rock is... he's just bein' greedy."   >:D

Time, dedication, cuts, tons of broken rock, a wife, and perhaps a few girlfriends are some of what it takes in becoming a skilled flint knapper!!!

PM Will or Jesse. They know where some Horse Creek and Ft. Paine is and you are real close to some Pappyrite.

 If you have to pull the trigger, is it really archery?

Russ, who is the guy that has good and cheap horn stone? Will he mail flat rate boxes?
