Igneous celt and adze: Mississippian bow project prep!

<< < (4/4)

TimPotter:
I really like how you are going about this project. Thank you for posting your progress.

GreenwoodBlacksmith:
This is awesome!  I have a strong desire to do a similar project myself.  Thanks for the inspiration!

bowtarist:
cool stuff. I have a Comanche buddy who told me that 120 to 150 grit was as smooth as a traditional item could have been made back in the day. Yours are looking good.

EdwardS:
I've seen stuff in the museum glass smooth before, so I know it's possible given time and a good grindstone.  Question is would they, and I can't answer that definitively.

swamp monkey:
I have handled museum collection celts and the business ends were really smooth. Some of that is due to effort up front but some of it is from use.
