Title: Flintknapping Videos by PA Forum Members (and other miscellaneous vids)
Post by: JackCrafty on January 14, 2014, 03:20:37 pm
Following an excellent suggestion by one of our forum members, this thread will be dedicated to Flintknapping Videos.

Just a few rules:

-  Accompany your link with the title of your video and a short description.
-  Place all your personal videos in one post.  This will cut down the number of posts and make it easier for people to find your videos.
-  Please do not post videos that contain items for sale unless you are currently running an ad on the PA webpage or magazine.
-  You can post links to other people's videos as long as they conform to the rules above.

Thanks guys!!!
