yep. keep at it.

don't get in too much of a hurry and be sure that you are abrading before flake removal.

Knotty:
Oh my bad, Dacite.. 😂

I pm'ed you asking what type of rocks they were Eddie, I thought only Flint and Obsidian lol.

mullet:
I didn't remember what I threw in the box. :)

JEB:
Very good. Keep those first time points for future reference.

Chippintuff:
I second all the above, especially about keeping that point and quite a few of your early points so you can look at them later and see the progress. Sign and date them. New knappers are tempted to give away all their early work, but you need to resist that urge. In just a month or two, you will see a LOT of improvement, but that one would put the buffalo on the table.
