If I'm sending you obsidian
« on: April 03, 2016, 02:18:32 am »
Please re-pm me. I know who I owe points(Trapper Rob, 1442, someone else) but I thought I was sending goodie baskets to a couple guys so they could play with something other then bottle glass but I can't find addresses or names.

That was just to get you by till I got back from Glass Buttes... So I remembered you but I was shipping to a couple guys. Any new guys want some if the other 2 don't pipe up. Have boxes ready to go, just no addresses

Well this will be fun. For all you that I'm sending goodie boxes too remember to start your own thread with the pictures of a few of the points you bop out! I'll put the rock in the mail tomorrow or the next day as my obsidian may be under water right now. It's been raining nonstop and super hard since last night.

Makenbreak, bronco, thunder, and I just got another PM while typing this. So whoever that was. For some reason I got 2 emails instead of PMs. Dunno how that happened but it works! You gents will all be getting some rock in the next week or 2. If this goes well I might do it again next month with another batch of guys just bopping bottles.

Tracker, in case you get buried in PMs again, I thought I'd write you here and tell you to check your email. I just sent you three emails regarding some really nice Osage billets in exhange for the rock.

All PMs and emails should be replied to and I got the boxes ready, went to the post office in town, and the system is down. I'll try again Friday. Make-n-break I sent you an email back but not sure if you got it? OPTION 1! Haha snakey vs. not snakey, I don't even know if that's a real question

I got the email. Lol!! Hey man, you never know. Option 2 was super easy, super straight, twist free, and bug free. I prefer character too, but wanted to give you the option! I'll get them on the way as soon as I can get to the post office.

   I know I still own you it's been to cold to go to my shop. As soon as the weather breaks I'll get to you. You have my word. Which dos'nt mean much to some people.

Tracker721, I received my box of flakes today and I love the colors of the obsidian. I have never seen it in person but that volcano glass is something special, created by God to please God. I hope when I get time I can knock out a point that will be worthy of such beautiful rock. Thank you for the flakes and I can't wait to start trying to make a point from it , I hope it works as nice as it looks.
