Finished a few points
« on: June 25, 2012, 08:23:13 pm »
Here are some points that I've finished in the past few weeks. Material ranges from Hornstone, obsidian, keokuk, burlington, local ht rock (resembles flint ridge) and a piece of mustard/lime glass. Need to work on better notches, but they'll haft.

Thanks for looking!

That's a lot of indian bullets. Great looking points Tracy. That's lime green one pops out.

Thanks for the comments! The lime glass point came from a piece that was in the shape of golf ball and was surprised to get it reduced and thin. Been on a glass/obsidian kick lately for some reason.

Great work and lot of them! That takes a lot of time to make a pile like that. I like them all.

Thanks for the comments. I got the lime green piece in a recent trade with dinorocks. I'm guessing leftover from glass making project
