Title: Copper Bored
Post by: Outbackbob48 on June 03, 2016, 10:15:18 am

I got a little tired of the copper so I broke out my abo tools for a little change up, white one is a Burlington preform that was in the bottom of the bucket. Pretty plain jane and the red one is a pc of Eric's Chigger wood(buffalo river). Need to fiqure out some narrower tools for notching :o  Bob

Looking good Bob...lots of expierments with ABO to keep you from being bored. I have considered a small nail flaker like Ishi used just for notching but havent gave up yet.

The king of copper busted out the antler?!?!?  Show Off.   :laugh:  Someone mentioned a while back that a freshly dressed ulna is a good ABO notcher, but it needs dressed after every flake.

I just got my 50# birthday box of texas flint today. Turns out I can knap a little bit. I just needed some good stone. See you tuesday night Bob.
