trying to make some porn of my own
« on: September 12, 2010, 09:34:48 pm »
well i got a box of coral from jeff about a week or so back
it was raw,so i spalled some down and took some of the smaller stuff that was in the box
thru it in my turkey roaster and went to town cooking rock for the first time
didnt realy have an idea of what i was doing
but the wife said "if ya screw it up,you can always buy more"
man shes so understanding  ;D
some was under cooked(bigger pieces),some over cooked (smaller pieces),some was just right  ;)
ive been working with it for a week now and heres what ive got so far(and have not wasted a piece yet  ;) )

most of the points were percussion/pressure flaked,the knife blade was all percussion ecxept the very edge
the point on the left has grey streaks in it and coral polops.the three on the right are all trnaslucent when back lit
the other two along with the knife blade are partially translucent when back lit




thanks for looking                                                      peace,

In working in stone i find my past, in giving of the blood i pay for the future.

very nice work and good job on the cooking. I am currently going through the pile and trying to seperate any coral that is or will be translucent. Seems there is a increasing number of request for it. Awesome work Tim

Nice work. I love the little knife.
Life is not a journey to the grave with the intentions of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body. But rather to slide in sideways, thoroughly used up, totally worn out and loudly proclaiming....WOW WHAT A RIDE!!
