Shades of Crabtree, you'll never run out of rock! Nice!

Good thinkin Tom ;)
I now know my knapping resources are
secure into the distant future. ???
I could conserve more by making triangles
instead of these larger styles.

You are too funny Zman! I use the tip of a finger to hold them down. I will try to get a decent pic of my smallest one for you.

You don't have to tell me, I started knapping over 20 years ago. I kinda got Petty bad, and like all you others. I lost my mind along time ago, 12,14 years ago. Other than hunting points knapped on those late morning gobbler hunt. I stayed away from knapping mainly.
Just knaped what I need to hunt with and it stayed at that until I trade for some obsidian to tracker. Kinda resparked something. Mainly for my youngest son BRIER, he started knappin glass a year year and half.
It was easy er to quit herion.
I when back and found a small head and a knife. There at least 16,18 years old.
My old lady just said shit. And shook here head when she saw the box of rocks. I told here at least I did'nt take a week and when and got a truck load.
She'll get over it.

And the fact that the nipples are covered is beyond funny. Living in Utah it is something that never ceases to amaze me.

SWEETTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT Looks like you been working.
I'll make a couple but that'll be hard to beat. We'll see.

You would think I'd do good at this since all my points end up smaller than I was planing on but some how I'm thinking that wouldn't be the case. Maybe I could use my broken off tips. Nice flake scar pattern on those little buggers Zuma.

Theres 1000's of chips in front of my shop. I picked up a few. Give me a few days I'll see if I can't get 5 on a dime.
