Title: Bonepiles bucket
Post by: Outbackbob48 on May 21, 2013, 05:16:59 pm
Roger gave me a small bucket of differnt spalls and pcs. This is a pc that had abig identantion of cortex so I tried to not lose width an used the cortex in the point . Made for some real interesting notching thru the soft cortex, as soon as the cortex edge hit solid material it became real hard so it ended my notch, would have liked to have gone just a little further but I'll take it. This pc had a $3 mark on it. Roger got any more $3 stuff?, I liked it, real challenging and purty to boot. Thanks for lookin and thanks for rock Roger, or did we get this out of Eddie's bucket :o :o 8) Later Bob
