Another video this on a new fluting concept

<< < (2/4) > >>

nclonghunter:
Thanks Turbo, I found it. I like the way he secured the point but I think an indirect percussion would be more accurate. Gives me some ideas.... :)

caveman2533:
I would taper the end of the chunk of wood so that he could have more clearance on the follow thru but it's a great way to add mass to the point.

turbo:
Yeah, I agree Lyman and Steve. I plan to try my nice flat sandwich rock w/ indirect next time I flute. Adding mass is great and I like his idea.

bowmo:
Thanks guys. There's a lot of ways you could incorporate the concept of more mass and a channel for the flake. But over all I feel like the idea is pretty cool and helpful.

bowmo:
And I got some indirect ideas floating around, that's how I broke it on the second flute...  ::)
