Utah (Vernon hills) Wonderstone

(1/4) > >>

JoJoDapyro:
I'm still pounding away on this stuff. A little better spalling thanks to some hours watching Jack Crafty. This was all done with a quartz 1 pound hammer stone. I'll see if I can get some flaking done on it tomorrow.

Redhand:
That is cool looking stone.  Did you go out and collect it yourself?

JackCrafty:
Wonderstone is TOUGH... so I've heard.  I never tried it.  That looks like good hammerstone work.  :)  I tend to snap workpieces when they get thin and I'm smacking away with a hammerstone.

JoJoDapyro:
I did collect it myself. As well as heat treat it. It is very hard. Very Very Hard.

Redhand:
Vernon hills isn't that by Tooele. That's about a 3 hour drive for me. I would like to try knapping some of that stone.
