Title: Rio rio demo
Post by: skyarrow on November 11, 2012, 09:54:04 am

Well i was asked to do a two day knapping demo with a friend at the goliad rio rio event i didnt get time to take pics of the whole event but i did take pics of our demo booth. Fri was a school trip event so we entertained about 1k kids some really liked our demo and showed a real intrest in learning how to knapp it was fun. Sat was the open day for the public thats the day when the cub and boy scouts come for there weekend camping. It was a nice turnout here are the few pics of the booth and a few points that were made

Heck yeah same here don hopefully soon we can break some bread and rock. I didnt work much actual rock at the demo because i almost cut my finger off while skinning that buck i shot lol knife sliPped and went to the bone. Glass is so much easyer on the hand then rock the shock from spalling still hurts some. either way it was still a great demo i even sold a blue point some guy wanted to make a necklace charm :). I wasent expecting to sell anything that was a nice perk hehe
