Great video! I had some rock like that once, it does not want to work with you at all. I'd like to see you try it again with some more cooperative rock.

I think that was a great video. It demonsrates how well abo works. I think that in many ways it is easier because you dont have to abrade and sharpen tools all the time. Thanks for the video.

Great video Patrick, you make Abo look too easy.

Snipe, I've got some better stone lined up...trouble is I just made rubble out of half of it last night.  I've got to slow down and pace myself. :o ;)

John, thanks!  Yep, no need to sharpen the hammer stone, that's for sure....heheh

Don, abo IS easy... isn't it??  No wait, that's Tae Bo...  sorry, got confused there. ;)

When you come upon a track or trail you do not know, follow it to the point of knowing.

That little dog barks at anything!

Paul, maybe I'll do a Midland next.  Richard Rose came over last Saturday and showed me some broken folsum bases and a couple paleo blades.  Got me fired up!!
