Feels good to get a nice form and sharp edges when you are learning.

It sure does. I really thought I would have a big problem. I have cervical stenosis.
3 vertebra are shrinking enough that my arms and hands hurt. But so far so good.

I have enough damage at my brain stem that surgery is out.
I really like primitive stuff. Bows, arrows and now Knapping.

I got the rocks from Tom. He sent me a box full and I sent him gar scales.
Nice stuff to learn on . Beautiful colors.
