mullet:
Heck, quit whinning and start chipping ;) :D. I've had the likes of Shannon Walker,(Flintwalker), and Elijah,(Seminolewind) at my house when they didn't know how to chip $#*!. Look at them now and look at what I still chip. ???

Practice. I have been learning for 14 years now. Always something new to learn and try. I am a junk man.  I like to take stuff folks throw away and see if I can get points out of it. That way I do not have to maees anything up that I do not want to. After my last knapping event I ended up with a 35 gal can of "practice" material.
