Just playing around
« on: December 23, 2012, 11:17:36 pm »
I sat down Friday and decided to knap some, but make nothing in particular.  I dug through the debitage pile and found a few flakes to play around with.  A little keokuk and rhyolite,



Saturday I did the same thing with some different grades of rhyolite, glass, dacite and texas rock.
