David_Daugherty:
a friend gave me a slab of picture Jasper today.  Is this material knappable?

cowboy:
I think it's all knappable if you have a way to heat it. Looks like picture wants 650. Happy knappin.

David_Daugherty:
Thx for the info Cowboy.  Don't have a kiln so may just have to keep it as a slab 😒

Chippintuff:
A turkey roaster will make it nice. I have ruined some at 430 degrees, while other pieces did well at that temp.

WA

cowboy:
David; I would heed chippintuff's advice. I don't live up there and rarely buy material. Try a roaster or cook in the ground, bet you'll be pleasantly rewarded.
