Title: skyy blue vodka point. Side notches added
Post by: BOWMAN53 on February 11, 2014, 10:32:42 pm
This is from the side of the bottle. I finished it up in the dark out side so it's not perfect.

Heck if that is the way you finish them in the dark, Can't wait to see one finished in the day light...Nice work. Did You get to drain the bottles before you reduced it to point material???

Unfortunately it looks like there was never anything in the bottle, it was just a display..

That's pretty nice but I thought only Dalton points were made from blue glass? Now it seems that the tradition carried on to the Mississippian cultures. That's a good one for sure.
