Post by: darwin on May 17, 2012, 07:08:08 pm
 I'm interested in makeing some glass points out of some old wine bottles but have no idea of the process, tools, how to get the bottom out, or anything, saw a video once but can't find it now, would appreciate some direction

Put a couple 16d nails in the bottle and shake (careful where you stand.) Then look it up on YT there are lots of helpful videos out. Specific questions are better and post pics!!

Look up Paleomanjim on youtube, he has an excellent begginers series on flintknapping.  He is just one of many but the first one that popped into my head.
