 Very Nice Shannon. You are kicking out some nice points.   I've got several ready to go out and everytime I see another point that someone els did I get to thinking that mine aren't good enough, so been doing allot of napping this last week   One thing about this little exchange is that it sure has encouraged and pushed me to try harder and also to spend more time a therock pile.
 I thought I was going to be sending mine out last week but decided to make some more so should be hitting the mail soon.

Thanks Keenan, I guess the reason I got those out so quick is because I already had them made.
  When I started trying to learn how to knapp, I went at it like fighting fire for a few weeks, then I just quit.  I made about 20 points and haven't touched a pressure flaker since.
  I think you got the nicest one, that's why I sent the other guys two each.
  I'm ready for another point swap, I think I still have 3 or 4 pretty good ones left.  I don't want them, and would much rather have one somebody else made.

Here's the point I got from N2Everything.  Nice, solid, sharp-edge point.  Will make a great neck knife...or similar.  Thanks N2!

[madcrow]

Here are the points I received this week.  The top one is from twistedlimbs and the bottom one is from Outbackbob48.  These are some great points to add to the collection.  Thanks guys.

[Keenan]

Some great looking points guys. I'd be proud to have any of them in a collection.

[cowboy]

  I've got all mine done, just have to get them in the mail. Helped Mechlesher out Friday night while we were sitting under the tarp in the rain. We were waiting for the N.C. Boz's, but guess they were afraid of the rain. Anyway Chris made a nice little point. It is a big step above his squirrel points. It was real nice.  Oh, Wade, found a nice little,broken, Paleo point and some inscribed pottery down at the village site Saturday after the rain.

[Sparrow]

 Have made several points and broken several others,really enjoying the production,just getting my hand back and ready to start on some nice material I have been saving.I've a couple of candidate's for the point I am sending to Keenan,but am holding out to see what comes of the next few efforts.Got some really nice chert that ought to make beautiful points.  Frank

 Anticipation is awesome.

[Blacktail]

hey keenan, who did you send a point to..i want to see some of your chipping..please....i want to see if your chipping is as GOOD as your bow making  ...later john

[Keenan]

 Thanks John, throw me right in front of the bus and spotlight. Thank you for the compliment to the bows that I've made. Still feel like a rookie in many ways. Humbly my flint napping skills are a few years behind the bow making. And regretfully it shows. I'm learning and getting better but as I look at some of what is being turned out I am very much reminded that I have much to learn. I hope and pray that the unfortunate victims (Chris Cade, Hillbilly,and Woodbow) that I am to send to are pleased with what they receive and that my efforts don't end up on the wall of shame
  I've made several then seeing other decided that they weren't good enough and I've since made more. Thankfully improving each time.
