Flint trade BITH?
«

I was wondering if anyone would be interested in a BITH
A medium flat rate box of stone swap? It's been a few years since we have done it.
Would anyone be interested?

You know I love shipping my obsidian and dacite! I'm in for 2. Gotta make room for my trip next spring to the buttes.

This is looking like a pretty short list.
The name drawings looking pretty simple
I'll leave it up another week before we swap

So I would just fill a medium FR box --which is what, like 12 or 15 dollars full of rock and then someone would send me one too? I have obsidian. Mostly pretty lumpy, but definitely workable. would that qualify?

I'd play, but I'm a little low on supply.

Nothing wrong with a lil obsidian or dacite .
It's all about the trading of lithic materials

Count me in then, but I need some advice on how to pack it so the obsidian doesn't beat itself to pieces before it arrives.

I am a newbie. What does PITH. stand for? Can I participate? I have heat treated small pedernales and some flint ridge heated in the turkey roaster. Probably some obsidian

PITH stands for Point in the hat. It's a point swap we seem to do every spring.
Your more that welcome to join in on the BITH.
The more the merrier.

i wish I had some rock that was worth a hoot, everything I have left looks like it has concrete mixed in it. Even I don't want to work it, but it may find its way into my junk pile.

Don Ive been on the fence to join or not. Do we send a bunch of the same or a mixed lot? How does the crowd prefer? Should we wait and ask our recipient, or just send blind?

I'm going to send a mixed lot of what I like to knap. Kind of a sample of Centeral Texas material . I'm ok with you asking your recipient. If it were me a big box of your Burlington would be just fine.
