    The ZZ top boys are some of the knapping cowboys from down south. Ryan what time were you there?  David ,there is a lot of Coral for sale on Eb&*. It's not cheap and if it's not heat treated, it's not for beginners.

Cool pics, Eddie. I've got to try to make it down to one of those Florida knapins next year- if nothing else, just to get thawed out for a while.

  I know what you mean Paul. But I do look forward to doing that when I don't have to worry about paying the bills doing it.

David W:  Glad to see you're back in the game.  Be careful and have fun.

Mullet:  Thanks for sharing.  Are all of the colorful points made from coral?

  Oh well, Tried to post those last 4 pictures and it still wouldn't work. Otoe, The points in the first cases and the pile on the ground by Claude and the scorpion are coral. The swirly colored ones were made from a chert in Tenn., I forgot the name, but they were nice looking.
