Title: Bucket Dropings
Post by: DanaM on February 25, 2010, 05:40:08 pm
Been messing around with bucket dropings today :o We all have em, ya know them pieces of rock that ya toss in yer bucket
and tell yerself I'll make a point out of that, then the next time ya look at it ya say man why did I keep that ugly ol rock :D
I cleaned my bucket out today and found a smorgashbord of rock, don't remember throwing some of the crap in there that I found
it was probably eddie tossing stuff in my bucket when I wasn't looking ::) :D
Anyway here's a few pics got some obsidian, Tallahatta, sonora, and texas. Go look in your bucket and see what ya can come up with eh ;)

Looking good Dana!  Most all of mine are "bucket droppings"  I like to try and get the biggest point I can from the smallest rock.

 Nice points, Dana. If I dropped that kind of rock in your bucket, glad to see you get that kind result out of it.

I'd need about a two yard bucket :D. Those look good man! I've always saved all the good chips/spalls for years - one of these days I need to work em or give em to somebody that will :).
