staves for stone @ T.N classic

<< < (8/9) > >>

D. Tiller:
Only 300 lbs! Small stuff!!! You must come out to OR and dig obsidian with us. Easiest knapping on the face of the earth. Just a light tap and large flakes come falling off like butter. I'm still smarting from trying to spall out Cowboys flint. The boppers will never be the same!

leapingbare:
D. tiller your spoiled  ;D

Pappy:
I think he is,we will break him of that at the Classic. ;) ;D I plan on keeping him up late and getting him up early and see if he really wants to be a bow builder. ;D

leapingbare:
Yea I'm ganna give him a piece of Riolite and a big woodin billet  ;D

D. Tiller:
Bring it on!  ;D

Rhiolite eh? well just need to bring out the steel hammers for that stuff then. Plastic explosives should work ok for spalling that stuff from what I hear. Little blobs along the edge where you want flakes to come off and daisy chain em together. Flaking made easy!  ;D

I swear people seem to be flaking off around here these days!  >:D

Looking forward to seeing you guys! By the way, at the Buttes we were getting up arround 5 or 6 to start getting ready for the day. Should be no problem! Just have a cup of coffee waiting outside my tent flap and I'll forgive ya!  ;D
