Looks like you've been busy Pete - that's a fine looking point. That knapping is some quality therapy :). You'll start flipping those points back and forth scrutinizing every ridge and valley and develop a sense of how to read the rock - before ya know it, you'll not have a step or hinge anywhere - just smooth tapering feathered out flakes. Ahhhh ;) ;D.

That right there...is proof that some people just have it in their blood.  He must have been a master knapper in a past life, and the way it looks, will become one in this  life. ;)
Be thankfull for all you have, because no matter how bad you think it is...it can always be worse.

Progress might have been all right once but it's gone on for far too long.

Thanks y'all. I am enjoying this, it seems as though I am making up for lost time somehow. I may need new shocks when I get back from Ohio.....I plan to load 'er down so I can get 'er done.
