making a knapping video
nclonghunter:
I was into the reduction when you took that end off. I saw the ridge you hit but just took about an inch of the end off. Enjoyed watching the video. Thanks.
GlisGlis:
good videos and nice stones you got there
that declared flake at 10:00 of the first video is awesome

Thanks
I'm working on more to try to show how I use indirect percussion. My computer was filled full and I've been going through it getting rid of a bunch of stuff to make more room, and then I'll have to do some editing to get rid of a lot of boring repetitiveness. I taped a couple hours worth of video making this preform, and the rock was a mess of concrete inclusions with a really thin section of good stone right under the cortex on one side. I should pick better rocks to video with but it made for some really interesting reduction.
I'll get it done in the next few days.

I prefer to see how you handle difficult stones than a perfect result. It's much more instructive

I have wounded my PC with all the video and am having to clean out some space on it, but I'll try to get it going again and post the vids soon.
