Latest knappings: made a couple "dogleg" corner tangs. And, no, I will not be giving these away in the PITH.  >:D

Nice Patrick. I bet if you did you’d get more people to join the PITH ::)

You're probably right, BJ. I didn't think about that.

These are spoken for but I guess I can make another, or some other large point, for the PITH.

Nice blades

I think I'll pass on the PITH.  Not into knapping in the summer, too hot and too many bugs right now

I'm giving away this blade for the PITH. I will wrap the lower half with cordage. Total 6" long.

Finished up 4 points made from chert collected in NY State. The Debert (Clovis) point is made from Normanskill.

I finished up the blade I'm sending out.

I'll publish the final list tomorrow, which will officially start the PITH. You will have until July 15th to send out your points. Have fun!

Very cool stuff, Patrick. 

I'm going to focus on just 1 this year.  Look forward to seeing the list.

Thanks,

Steve

Final List:

JackCrafty
SSRhythm
GutPile
Yosemite Ben
BJRogg
PaulC
Parnell
Tower
BonePile
Trapper Rob

Looks like SSRhythm and PaulC are going to receive points from two people. Lucky.

I didn't look at last years' PITH to see if some people are exchanging points  to/from the same person as last year. This was luck of the dice. Luckily, there are 10 people and I just happen to have a 10-sided die from my D&D days. ;D

Lucky you Rob. That’s cool. Glad you got it. I’m sure I’m not the only one who was hoping to get one from Patrick.

PM’d address to Paul and look forward to seeing what he sends me.

My cousin is going to be visiting for a couple weeks and we plan on making some flakes when he gets here. He said to be watching for a couple boxes of spalls he is sending in the mail.

I will try to get something for Ben then
