I made this Snyders from what I believe is Bowling Green chert, a form of Burlington. It was made all ABO.

     Ppffftplbbttz! :P
     Yeah, it's OK, I guess......have you been doing this very long?  Do you know the lithic dance, and the proper throwing technique, for broken points, and blades?  Can you speak in unknown toungues about the Lithic Gods lack of parents? If so,
then you are a knapper.  Till then, you are just a hack!  Ok, it is worthy of a WOW!  Maybe even a couple of WOWs, but not more than three! >:(  Man that is a stomp down good one there!  I wish I could do that kinda of knapping, instead of making material for road beds.  That is a sweet point.  Thanks for making me feel even more inferior. :(  Lets see some more!

Thanks ya'll for the kind comments! Stickbender, I have been knapping for four years and yes I am a knapper. I can chuck broken points in the proper manner and scream in rage in all sorts of new languages. Usually it just stays on the inside. I will post some more pictures tomorrow.

Sweet Snyder! Great job with all-abo!

Where is the source of this bowling green burl?
Pretty stuff.
