Title: Garage point
Post by: Allyn T on January 15, 2023, 10:20:46 pm

Had a couple friends over to Knapp today. I made this one while they were here. Made from some really crunchy Burlington that I heated but it didn't help much. My son dropped it and broke the bottom corner off and the tip. He also stabbed my wife in the butt with it and got it taken away immediately.

Thank you, this was one I had put aside because I was doing terribly with it and pulled it out the other day and everything started working just fine

I use to blame stuff like that on the boys too when they were young.  >:D Doubt the wife ever believed me.
Far from a pro myself but enjoy seeing you posting your work and progress in the craft. Looking good.

That’s the best way to handle those trouble makers. I’m talking about the ordinary point not the youngster.lol.

Got my curiosity up though.

Any penetration? Blood? Can’t let a good test go to waste.lol

Just kidding

BJ I think it was a test poke that he regretted immediately lol no blood. I hope you do get to hit some soon. Russell chipping rock is probably a good break from academics: )
