I decided to do some knapping. Don't know what kind of rock it is other than that Rick T sent it to me? Possibly Keokuk ??? 2" by 1.25" and weighs 154g

Dana,
Once I get up in Chicago, I'm gonna have to make a day trip (if that's possible- not sure) for some help. Bill Skinner worked with me one afternoon and he is very talented, but he's the only guy I have ever met down here that knows how to knapp.
-
Good job dana

Looks good to me. Good enough to shoot into the dirt if you shoot like me. ::)

nice work Dana 8)

jeff your more than welcome to come but its far enough that ya will want to make it a weekend :) I will help as
I can but believe me I'm just a thrasher and a basher :D
Thanks guys, wish I could knap more but its not real healthy to be doing in in the house, and now that I'm not smoking I'm
a little more concern about my health ;)

Nice work Dana, I'm pretty sure that was some Burlington.

All you guys up that way, I heard the day before I left that Claude VanOrder sold his house and will be moving to Tennesee before the end of Febuary. That ain't very far for a road trip for ya'll.

thats about 12 hrs from me.
never been there but i know hes near clarksville somewhere
and thats pretty near mid point for my upcoming drive in 10 days.
its about half way to daytona beach from my house. ;D
-
Tim pappy's in Clarksville so you should stop by and say hi, you really need to go to the Classic eh :)
-
I might just try to meet up with Mr. VanOrder sometime. A fella could learn alot from someone of his experience.
-
That's a nice looking point Dana, you got me beat, I haven't been beating any rock lately, just got back into the swing of things with the bows I started. Now this week is gonna be freakin cold.
