Title: Full of PITH and Vinegar - 2018 trade! LIST IS UP
Post by: Parnell on February 09, 2018, 11:53:10 am: Well, it appears folks are anxiously awaiting the trade...it's a little early but why not get started!

The rules remain the same as the past years:

1. State the # of points you are sending out.
2. I'll write a name per point on paper strips and do the hat thing. I'll be shuffling shuffling shuffling the names.
3. My wife will draw names.
4. I'll post the sequence and you send a point to the name above yours. If a name is repeated in the draw from multiple entries, consecutively, the name will be reshuffled. First drawn sends to the last person.
5. YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE for sending your contact info. to the person who mails to you through a PM.
6. Would like to keep this US only. If there is international interest, say so, and we'll see who all enters and make a decision from there before the draw. No promises.
7. PLEASE post pictures of the points you've received!

All points will be shipped by Saturday, May 12th!!!

I encourage anyone sitting on the fence post to get involved! All ability levels are welcomed, but please make your best effort for your recipient as we have PLENTY OF TIME!

Have fun everyone.

OK, here we go... I am in for 2.

Also:

bjrogg - 2 points

YosemiteBen - 2 points

Chippintuff - 1 point

Knapp_123 - How many points?

I'm 18 yrs old; new to the forum not to knapping. I grew up around arrowheads and knapping, I'm the son of UtahChip.
I knapp mostly cobbles i find in the canyons around where i live, using indirect percussion.

Post by: trail walker on February 14, 2018, 10:26:49 am: I want to real bad but I am kind of so so at knapping. :o,
Title: Re: Full of PITH and Vinegar - 2018 trade!
Post by: Parnell on February 15, 2018, 06:53:46 am: So put in for a point and just have fun, Trail Walker. ;)
Title: Re: Full of PITH and Vinegar - 2018 trade!
Post by: Knappin Cowboy on February 15, 2018, 10:30:11 am: Put in Trail walker!! The way I see it is if the arrowhead you make is better than your last, then your already a better knapper then you were. And that goes for everyone. The way you get better at knappong is practice (and bleeding a lot :laugh:) the best practice I ever had was trying to make a point everyday for a month. Happy knapping y'all!
Title: Re: Full of PITH and Vinegar - 2018 trade!
Post by: bjrogg on February 15, 2018, 12:41:49 pm: Trail Walker I'd be happy with one of your best tries. Someday when your really good you might want it back.

Title: Re: Full of PITH and Vinegar - 2018 trade!
