That is cool...I take it you are along the coast?   I have seen coral points, but never where they originated from. Is a Series of pics showing the knapping process in the works? I would be interested

Pretty soon you can kick back in a lawn chair with a glass of lemonade and watch him fill the truck. That sure is a nice piece, jeff.

this is inland by about 40 + miles or so from the coast and I was using my dirt  x ray tool to locate the heads, lol  He did very well, he and my others 2 have been rock digging with me for years, this was first killer head of pinhead which is the hard stuff to find, kind of rare, he scored this gem pinhead coral piece also and I had to find the 80lb head of swirly pinhead to maintain my place   ;D
