Title: various points from last fall
Post by: Josh B on February 20, 2012, 03:28:30 pm

Here are few I knapped  awhile ago before winter set in.  As you can plainly see, I've a lot to learn.  The first three are obsidian,fiber optic glass, and bud light.  The blurry one is novaculite.   Josh

Looks like your learning curve is coming right along, to me. Nice ones.

Thanks Mullet!  If I make it to MOJAM this summer, I plan to pester the devil out of the knappers in the pit.  Hopefully I can learn a thing or two.  Josh

Thanks everybody!  It's 70 degrees here today.  I might have to make some flakes if I get time!  I get the fiber optic from a guy in Independence, MO.  Josh

Thanks Cowboy !  I just noticed that your from Springtown .  During the aftermath of Katrina, I hauled butane out of that little pipeline terminal  north  of Springtown  for a month straight .  Small world!   Josh
