some oooga booga ponderin'
cowboy:
flint river GA, hmm - on my "to do" list now ::).
stickbender:
Yeah, Eddie, he is about thirty minutes from there. ( Flint River) We plan on going with his Girlfriend, and his dad, on a fishing, float, and just looking trip. He said we could stop at some of the sand bars, and such. What do I look for as to color, or outer crust. Limestone, etc. ? Ok thanks. That is pretty good stuff isn't it? Do you have to heat treat it? In fact the Clown Class has been canceled, so I am going up for a week or so, just to ramble and look for stone, and visit with Friends. Hopefully I can load up on it. Anyone know anything about the Elberton area? I have a Friend up there that I am going to visit also. He and his wife invited me up when I get to Ga. . Anyway, I am going to start looking for stuff up there. Let me know what to look for if you can. Or anyone else out there that knows what the coastal plains stuff looks like in the raw. And if it needs to be heat treated...... ;) Thanks.

mullet:
I'll post some pictures tomorrow Wayne of the good stuff out of the river. And the land find stuff. Elberton is just across the river from Mechleshers farm.
stickbender:
Mullet thanks . Ron showed some on a post he had. Which is better, the river,stuff, or land stuff? And do you have to heat treat it? Or can you just whack it with a baseball bat like those ridgerunners in North Carolina do? ;D Or just start flakin like Cowboy, and don't bother with heat treating...... ;D If I can find a good source of it I will load up my truck. ;)
