It's been a while since we've done the PITH. I was wondering if anyone would be interisted in participating.
-
I reckon I'm willing!
-
You can count me in.
-
I have never done a PITH on this site but I would certainly be interested in participating. Count me in on PITH - Ben
-
I'd be in
-
Having trouble knapping in this winter weather, but if the shipping isn't til spring I'm in. dp
-
I'm good for it ! ' Frank
-
I'm in for 3. How's about we ship at the end of April. Should be plenty of time to get back in the swing of things. Tower

Hey Tower - you might explain PITH (point in the hat) for those new here. I've been here a while and have never seen a PITH yet. I know how it works at another site, but you mentioned "in for 3" and I am not sure if we trade one point or three? I assume at some point someone will post the names and who trades with who, rules, etc.
Thanks, Ben
-
I want in!
How is the best way to send them?
How much does it cost to send the points?
-
I usually send a small flat rate box with a point or two and a couple pieces of material like the point was made from for the recipient to work themselves. Costs about six bucks.
I have recieved points simply sandwiched between cardboard in a small padded envelope with shipping of less than two bucks, cant remember exactly, but it can be done for very little money and that is perfectly acceptable and just as good.
The main thing is to put your best effort into making the point to trade and it should represent your ability at the time of the trade. Don't matter if you just started knapping yesterday and can barely make a point as long as you doo your best. It's not a contest to see who can send the biggest finest point but more to share what you do with someone else and for someone else to share what they do with you.
Tower being in for three just means that he has the time and material and is willing to do three seperate trades which is good because I am three times as likely to recieve a Tower point as if he only did one trade.
-
Put me in for two.
DK, Someone will take charge and get all the names of who wants to be in after a closing date/time. They will choose names, i.e. draw a name, then another, second name sends to first name third name to the second and so on. For those of us who want to send more than one point, their names will go in as many times as they have picked, like tower's name will be in three times, mine twice. Once all names have been drawn, the first name drawn will send to the last name drawn. I think that is how we did it last time. Hope this explained it okay. dp
-
I'm in for two.

The last PITH was titled P.I.T.H. March 2013
You can look it up to see how it went. I don't know how to link it here or I would put the link

I'm in ! Ill do one.

I'm in ! Ill do one.
What do I need to do to get this thing rigged so Elijah draws my name?
-
I would do one, but I warn whoever trades with me, that they are getting the short end of the stick to start!
-
There is no short end of the stick in this game. We all started at the bottom. Everyone who enters understands that.
-
I'm in ! Ill do one.
What do I need to do to get this thing rigged so Elijah draws my name?
Hahah, I guess I'll have to do 2 the peer pressure is getting to me.

I'm in for 2. Thanks for setting it up Don.
George
-
I'll give it a go for 2.
-
put me in for 1
-
count me in.
-
I'll take PITH for 2!
-
I'm in. Put me down for 4.
-
For us newcomers, someone spell out how this works. Is a type chosen, and everyone tries to do that type, or is it just random?
-
Ashock, You can make whatever point you want to make out of whatever material. It's all about sharing what you do as a flintknapper, weather your a new addict working with toilet tank material and getting steps on every flake or an expert working with some exotic rock making sweetwater biface replicas dont really matter.
I think it is important to take pics of the point you recieve and post them on the results thread. If someone can't post pics they should let it be known in the sign up thread or somewhere so the sender can take pics and post them for the reciever after they have been recieved.
It's all about seeing what everyone else sent and recieved as much as sending and recieving of ones own trade, and mostly having fun.
-
Thank You!
-
Sign me up for two Don and thanks for hosting this pith.These are always alot of fun. ' Frank
-
Throw me in for two Don
-
Put me in for one. It's my first PITH.

I am in for one.
Is the date March or April? Still not clear from what I read. OP still says April 18th/26th
Thanks
-
April. I know I need the extra time & practice.
-
April. I know I need the extra time & practice.
Me too! Thanks.
-
I thought I had mine done already. I even had thin parallel flakes covering the entire piece. While taking one of the very last finishing flakes, a crack full of gunk was revealed, about an inch down from the tip, and by the time it was cleaned up, there wasn't much left.
I wish I had taken pictures before I tried to fix it!
On the other hand, it is the first point I have made that I would have been happy to claim as mine. It was obsidian, and I did not snap it in half, so it was still a win. Best I have ever done so far.
-
Way to keep after it A-shock!
-
So on the PITH. Is it any certain style point or just what ever we make?.
knapper
-
Whatever point you feel like making.
-
Count me in for one.
Jeremy
-
Heading out to start on mine right now ' Frank
-
Not too clear on this.. is the stop date in March or April? If I`m not too late I`d like to get in for 3 trades myself... if I`m too late, guess I`ll get in on the next pith... Thanx for your time Don.
-
Finished my PITH. today! All I need now is a name >:D

Here is the PITH list of names in the order they were drawn.
The rules are simple. Everyone sends a point to the person above them. The first person on the list sends one to the last name on the list.
You will need to contact the person or persons your shipping to for their address.
Please ship you points by April 26.

Just sayin'...maybe a PITH results post would be in order?

Mine will have to go out on the 28th, sorry it's late, but they will be going out on the 28th. Gives me two more days since last weekend has been the first outdoor knapping weather on a weekend we've had this year so far. dp
-
Sent PM's to lobo69 and Sparrow.
-
PM sent a couple of days ago to Yosemite Ben. You can always e-mail your message if the PM is giving you trouble - benhenry007@hotmail.com
-
PM'd Bryan and Derik last night. Told them I'd ship or give in person at the Classic.
Also mentioned to Derik the idea of having a Classic pith since a lot of guys will be there and actually pull points out of a hat. Anyone game?
Tracy
-
I'd be up for that Tracy.
-
What is the best way to ship/pack these points? How much do they usually cost? Never done this before.
-
Sasquatch - Usually a padded envelope in first class mail is best for a single point or two. If you want to add bonus gifts such as a slab or something with weight, a small flat rate box is pretty cheap. When sending one point I usually sandwich and taped in small pieces of cardboard and send it in a small manila envelope or the aforementioned padded envelope. The smaller and less something weighs, the less it costs on regular mail. If something is heavy, flat rate is best.

I received my points from Eddie Parker and Woodbow 1, and guys I really appreciate them. I'm going to start working on a box for points I've received to put up in our house. Between all the great things I've received from folks my wife has said, "You know, we really should create a display of everyone's art." Fine by me!
My points have shipped, they should be received to both recipients, soon.
I wish I had picked up a super fine sharpie for Yosemite Ben's points, I hadn't thought of it...I'm learning, and got one yesterday for Lobo's.
Here are some photos.
-
OutbackBob, I just finished making up your box.
Lucky for you all I had was a medium flat rate box, so I packed it full of goodies.
Should be getting it to the post office after work tomorrow.
119er
EDIT
Got the package shipped out Bob! Enjoy.
-
119er, Man what a great trade. You went way beyond an then some. I got a nice point and alot of rock that I've never knapped before, also a pc of copper. Again thanks Niner. Check out point of the month an maybe you can help me also. Thanks Bob
-
how many of ya'll have shipped, were a ways past the ship date of April 26
-
I am with bubby, how many have not received their point yet?
-
Wish I had gotten in on this one, the suspense is killin me and I finally have time to knap! Bunch of cool points guys :).
-
I'm still waiting for one of my trades. Bob
-
Mine are made will try to get them in the mail.
-
I've shipped all of mine, they were received, I got one, waiting on one.
-
I'm all done. My points should be received.
-
I'll be the 1st to apologize to me reciepents. I've been outta town for almost 4 weeks I have the points at home needing someone to wrap & ship them.
-
Received both, shipped one. I have been in contact with Lobo and will ship ASAP.
-
wasn't trying to stir the pot, just seemed like the post was floundering, I know some of you were at the classic and that I understand
-
Robbie got his in mail, Rog got his @ Classic. I got Bubbs in mail and Tracy's at the Classic. Need to post pics of Tracy's. 13th anniversary today and my wife bought me 3 of the black cardboard shadow boxes. I can always upgrade, but this will allow me to organize three years of point trades. Totally stocked!!
-
Madcrow ,yours is going in the mail today
Bone
-
Boys....Apologies, I have been consumed by a record Spring salmon run,back home now and back to the regular world.Will get your points in the Mail today. ' Frank
-
Does anyone have Outbackbob 48 address?
-
PITH?
-
(Point in the hat)
It's an annual trade that we put on and everyone who has the slightest knapping desire is welcome to draw a name and send their best point.
-
Tower, sent you a pm. Bob
-
Hey folks with communications problems. In the post on the left you will all see the name of a person who posted a message. There are 3 icons below each name. The first (if you hover your pointer above them) is "View profile" and the second is "Email" and the third is "Personal Message." Apparently some folks can't get the Personal Message (PM) depending on if they use a computer or a cell phone, so pick the middle one that looks like an envelope and send them an Email if all else fails. Not all good and faithful members can get a PM apparently because they rely on cell phones - just a tip I learned.
And I sent my stuff out to Yosemite Ben - he liked my serrated Dalton and Novaculite spalls.
-
Thanks Dalton Knapper I was unaware, so did both.
-
I just recieved my point from Tower and what a beauty, Makes all my other points need to go on a diet, This baby is 2-1/4" at the widest and 1/4" at it's thickest. Oh yeah 9 to1, ya can read the newspaper thru it, Pics just don't do it justice, Thanks Tower was well worth the wait, I need so more thinning lessons. Bob
-
Yep Bob, I don't have any other points that are as thin as Towers points. Would love to sit down and learn a thing or two from him :D
Tracy
-
I hope everybody posts the points they got cause I want to see them!
I agree Tim. Looks like only about 14 of 54 so far. Hope the rest get posted after the dust settles :)
-
This has been eatin on me so I'm going to get it off my plate. The Pith as of lately has been getting abused. Here some of the thinks that I believe need to be addressed.
RESPONABILITY
Senders- contact your receiver and get there address
make the best point that you are capable of
send on the dates posted or before, It is a habit to be early and also a habit to be late.
Receivers- Let the sender know that you received your point
Post a picture of your received point
If you cant post a picture let your sender know in advance
so that they may take pic and post.
Bob
-
I recieved Tower's point yesterday (5/17) and it was worth the wait. This is a skillfully made Dalton that has the correct form, beautiful flaking, appropriate material (TXChert), and is as thin as a rail! It is in the top 1% of the best made PITH points and the best Dalton I have ever received from anyone and I have been trading PITHs for years. Thank you very much Tower - you picked my favorite! So...with no further delay, here's some eye candy for you guys!

Got this gooder from Tracy at the Classic. Sorry it took so long to post pic. Thanks Tracy!! dp
-
Received YosemiteBen point and some nice material for me to work.
Thank you very much Ben.
Tom
-
I'd hoped that YosemiteBen would post a picture of the serrated Dalton I sent him (along with some purple Novaculite), but I don't know if he does photos. I should have taken one myself, just in case.
-
You guys are outdoing yourselves! Love the pics.
-
So, I sent a couple points to Lobo69, for the PITH, and he wrote me a PM. I received a package from him the other day and he went out of his way to send me a number of things, just out of being a good guy! It really is a great gesture, Lobo!
I hope to meet you sometime in the future and thanks for the points!
The huge glass point is made from a tv screen, awesome! I think my favorite is the grey arrowhead. Very nice shape to it!
-
Better photo of the 'head...
-
just got a box with some nice points and material from starchild, I think, i'll post some pics later thank's man I appreciate it ;)

Guys , thanks for all the Pith pics, This is what a Pith is all about! Bob

Now Dalton - some things just take time! As an Interpreter my schedule is subject to change at any time. We have had several deaths of fellow interpreters family members and otheres taking care of family members on their death beds. Our schedule have been fraught with changes! In any event I received my points from Parnell and DaltonKnapper in good order. The first set of two is from Parnell, the second and third pics are from Dalton Knapper (one point and some of the bigger pieces of raw material. Thank you both gentlemen. The points will be going in my PITH case from the last three years!

Nice points Bubby! John does some nice work.

Glad you got them. The cool story about the larger point is that it is what remained of a failed Clovis. So the signed side of that point is where the flute came off of. That was a wonderful clovis "almost" but makes for a great story about a nice point. So that is why it is flat and has no transverse flake scares on one side.

cool story

My points must not have made the grade. :( Neither of them got pics posted. :( dp

Sounds good Tracy. Let's try to make that happen this year. We can both bring our stuff and set up on the same tarp or separate, which ever works. I'm going to make a plan and tell the wife about it right now. Get w/ me!! dp

If you're having problems with pics, you can send them to me via email and I'll post them for you if that helps. I couldn't post pics for a year and a half when the site changed formats so I know the frustration.

Received my points from Loboss69 today. I messed up and made a separate post. Anyhow these are the points and I just had to do something to keep them together. Used the box they were sent in. They are displayed in the living room for all to see and admire the craftmanship Lobo put into them. Lobo thanks again,
