New for me
« on: October 27, 2014, 09:27:57 pm »
I can't pressure flake using my knees or hip after the hip replacement surgery so I've been working on my Percussion and Indirect percussion flaking. This Dovetail was done without any Pressure flaking. The material is Ft.Payne Will Harrison gave me a couple of years ago.

Thank's guys. I'm actually more proud of that point then any in my case. mostly because when I was hitting crappy I put it down and went back to it later. I like the primitive look.
Joe, I wish you could be there too, it would be a hoot. Hip feels good, hope I can get up and down those little hills.
