Title: Recycled...
Post by: BrewerMo on March 23, 2018, 07:11:23 pm
Recycled some trash I picked up while looking for artifacts on the river. I snapped the piece in half while bifacing, so I still have one point to go. It's been awhile since I have worked any glass. Hammerstone percussion and antler pressure.

Looks like you got comfortable with the glass pretty quick. Nice job recycling and beauty of a point

Good job with that.  It’s interesting how little glass there is where I live.  Every once in awhile I’ll find something in mangrove marshes, like an old wish bone base.

That is sweet. The first hog I killed with a point was glass from a Clorox bottle.

Steve, wade the mud in the Caloosahatchie. I've found a lot of bottles there but most were very ol
