Title: recent progress
Post by: paulc on June 04, 2017, 08:20:42 pm

So sorta some progress.  These are the other points that I was playing with trying to get ready for the exchange.  I was able to spend some time this weekend poking at them.  A mix of obsidian and flint ridge.  The flint ridge stuff is all flakes I found laying on the surface at Nethers Farm.  They will all kill a deer I think.  And to quote one of you from some time back, "all stone and bone".

I suggest not worrying about killing a deer yet. Squirrels/rabbits sure! But deer I say nah. Tons of improvement though and from the last time I was on till now is impressive. Another month or 2 and your points could easily be ready for the ultimate test!
