Title: First time in a long time
Post by: Tracker0721 on January 31, 2020, 04:32:07 pm

Sat down with my tools and a obsidian flake I had for the first time in going on 2 years. Forgot how fun it is! Took me just about an hour and a half to pop this little guy out. For sure thought that freeze crack was gonna ruin it but it didn’t! Not near where I was but it didn’t break even with those notches so I’m happy. Horrible hinges on that fault line and no good flake scares either... gonna have to make another tomorrow!

Nice to see you back Tracker. That’s some pretty stuff for sure. Looks like tri flow maybe? Did you get that from Glass Buttes? Talked to my cousin again and he’s really getting excited about the gathering. Hopefully you get there to and get resupplied. Maybe you two can meet up.
Thanks for sharing your point.

And you usually have to bleed a little more even after you learned how.
