I got a load of that off the road down your way. Then i found where the county was quarrying it thus the honey hole
. Spall it, cook it, makes some tough points..

Ohh yeah fordice is a few miles from me I could order a truckload but that takes the fun of gathering myself
this is some pretty hard stuff uncooked you have to have perfect platforms or it will step fracture on ya

Thanks for the pics Sterling! That is some good looking rock. Hmmm...... If I could get a tri axle load of knappable rock delivered, I would be hidden in the pit by all that rock
