Hillbilly:
Great looking point. Did you punch those notches? Oh, and is that cholla cactus on the ground there?

cracker:

cowboy:
I could have used a lot of help managing that pile of wood in the last coupla days - I'm good now ;D.
 Steve: I used my hand flaker with the copper hammered flat pretty much all the way in till my copper got too short, about three secondary percussion flakes in the shoulder gave up on me. I'm gonna make some more ;).

cowboy:
Oh yea, that's cholla laying there. though it doesn't grow around here I've accumulated plenty - need some?

Hillbilly:
Sure-that stuff makes some purty knife handles and stuff. I need to try more punch notching, haven't done enough to get the hang of it. A lot of what I've read said that the Indians apparantly did a lot of punching the notches in on their points.
