A few hours down a few to go
« on: October 10, 2015, 08:19:53 pm »
Here's a Mill Creek celt I started yesterday and a few others I've made recently.

A little rough out with some moose on it and another mill blank.



Wet grinding by hand. My grinding stone isn't exactly abo but I had it on hand.



Where I'm at so far after 3 or 4 hours.



...and some other stuff...

That is some cool work there! Real nice biface work with the moose antler. I have often thought about abo FOG because I think that paleo  flaking on that surface would be killer. You are going to have to post that as you go. Even if that breaks I want see the results ...cool stuff

Oh definitely. I've been hand grinding off things like stacks and funky spots and then flaking over it for years. Pretty useful when you have a booger stack you're tried of losing width fighting it.

Nice points- that long pointy one is awesome!
May my presence go unnoticed, may my shot be true, may the blood trail be short. Amen.
