Knowing when to quit

Muskyman:
That’s a tough thing for me too. Thing with me is I really haven’t had many that were very thin. I’m getting better but it’s slow in coming. The thing I have found is the big difference in flint/chert and obsidian.. It looked good until it didn’t bjrogg. Nice Christmas ornament too.

Thanks Muskyman. I think it’s a pretty normal problem and the finish line moves as we progress. I think you are catching on. Keep pushing and you’ll keep moving the goal line.

My notching still needs a lot of work.  Piece is looking great Brian.

Mine too. Sometimes I think I’m getting the hang of it.
