Ok rob is doing 2, gutpile you doing one or 2?

Here are the rules:
The name on the left is the person you are shipping to. Those with two points look for your name twice.
You have one month to ship your point from the date the list is posted.
Please let’s post a pic of the points we receive.
Please PM your recipient & for their ship to address.

Bonepile- Tower, Gutpile
Parnell- TrapperRob
Paulc- Bonepile
TrapperRob- Gutpile
Gutpile- Allyn, TrapperRob
BJrogg- Paulc
Tower- BJrogg
Allyn- Parnell

And give my mailing information to paulc
Bjrogg
-
Yes sir that is correct
-
Traveling this week. Will work on it when I return.
You calling a deadline, Allyn?
-
Looks like last year jack gave everyone a month, that works for me. If anyone fell behind it wouldn't bother me either. I'm gonna try to get one done this week.
-
Bonepile and trapper Rob... can you guys send me an address.. gut
-
Bonepile- I didn't find you in the member search...not sure what that's about. I need to send you my address.
Thanks, Paul
-
Paul you can click on his name and it will pull up his profile. I haven't heard from him either and sent him a PM hoping he would respond.. no luck yet... He is in Venice Florida is all I have gathered..gut
-
Wife said I got a package it's from gutpile I'll open it when I get home
-
Mee Too if it aint to late. Dued to logistical constraints, I am not on here much! I am ready to go!
-
Ben if you want to pick a random person to send a point to I'll make one for ya.
-
Ben you can take my extra point and send to bonepile if you want. I have already sent one of my points to trapper rob ,but I haven't got a response from bonepile yet... gut
-
That works too if you guys want
-
Both options work for me. I think I have addresses....
-
Ben I think gut is ready to ship now if you wanna give him your address. I made a point and I like it but I don't think it's good enough to send to you.
-
I can send my extra point to Ben if he would like it.. I have never heard back from bonepile.. hope he is ok.. ben if you want send me your address and I can ship you this one.. gut
-
Guys if you send me a point please take a pic to post because I can not post on PA .. will not post here for me.. used to be able to but it will not work anymore.. gut
-

Has anyone heard from Bonepile. I can’t seem to get I touch with him for an address
-
Tower ,I hope he is OK .. he never responded to me either.. I have had his ready since day after drawing.. Allyn that point is beautiful.. I'm not sure how to proceed at this point.. Ben hasn't sent me his address either.. gut
-
Paulc let me know if you need a point .. you will not be left out brother.. gut
-
Thanks Gut I'm glad you like it. I'm not sure about bonepile but I bet Ben will be on again Saturday and he will give you his address then.
-
I hope so.. he is a good guy .. I got a point from him last year and some Yosemite patches.. we had just went to Yosemite that year but got smoked out in 1 day.. so we are planning another trip soon.... I don't want to see Paulc get left out though.. trapper rob got mine but he can't post pics either..lol.. maybe yours will make it today Allyn... gut
-
I hope bonepile is okay. I bet life has got other things on his plate right now.
I'd be happy with a point from you Gut...Aren't you in Georgia too? I'm over here in Savannah area. I'll send you my address. Paul
-
Ok Allyn post that point . Ole allyn has sent me an incredible point period! And he is new at knapping. Could of fooled me .
-
Lol I did post it gut, it is on page 2 of this thread. I'm really glad you like it, it's my best one yet. Helps that the rock was so pretty. I hope you could read my hand writing in that note
-
I just saw Bonepile the other week. He is fine. I have no doubt he is working something up and will be on. I know he doesn’t log on here much. If it goes on I can give him a call. Is there a deadline on this that I missed? In the past people were given awhile…
I need to contact my gues, myself.

I think people were just ready to send and were wondering where everyone was. Put a month for deadline but also said if someone feel behind it wouldn't be a big deal. I'm in no rush Parnell so you can take however long you need. It's supposed to be fun so I hope no one is stressing over this
-
Ok, great. Thanks Allyn.
-
I am holding off till I hear from bonepile.. I got mine ready to send. Paulc if bonepile doesn't respond. maybe you and ben can do a swap.. he got in after the drawing..gut
-
I'll give Roger a call and see what he's up to.
-
I just talked to Bonepile. He said he has tried to get on the site but everytime he tries to log in it says he does not exist. Allyn I'll send you his phone number and you can text or call him to get his information.
-
If you do a members search, type his name like this; Bone pile. I did and it went to his profile.
-
Howdy
I'm here and doing fine
-
Well there you go...I searched bonepile!
Paul
-
Bone Pile send me your address sir.. and I'll get you your point.. gut
-
I need to get mine notched then they'll be ready to go
-
Bone pile shipped this morning which completes my PITH 2022 commitments.. enjoyed it guys.. gut
-
I’ve got point for Tower done. Just need to sign, pack and send out.
I’ve been really busy with work and funerals lately but hoping to catch my breath now.
Should get it out in next couple of days

BJ, I'm gonna be late shipping but I will get you a package out! Paul

Wow! Nice things. I've been working on some odds and ends and won't let mine go too much longer.
-
Those are some really amazing points guys! Good job!
-
I need to try to get mine finished tomorrow

Yip…just had to move on
-
Oh man heartbreak. I just end-snapped one yesterday.
-
Bummer for sure
-
Mine will be going out tomorrow
-
Ok so who hasn't gotten a point yet or sent one? Trying to fit Ben in here.
-
I still need to ship to BJ.
Paul
-
Do you wanna ship to Ben instead and he can send to BJ and then everyone will be good?
-
That one looked like it was coming your way Steve. :-K Nice looking stuff.
I’m ready to send Tower his point. Post Office won’t be open till Tuesday I have it packed
That would be fine by me if you want Ben to send to me.
Bjrogg

Looks like it has a great flake pattern. Is that a harden style point?
-
thats what sucks about obsidian ..pictures never do it justice.. point is sweet... thanks trapper rob,.. gut
-
I'll be finishing mine and shipping this weekend.
Paul
-
Alright y'all, due to my continued inability to produce a point I feel good about sharing and life's continued interruption of my attempts to produce a better point I feel I need to bail on the exchange this year. I will forward the point I got from Bone Pile on to the person I was supposed to ship my point to.
Unless y'all feel there is a more appropriate course of action.
Thanks, Paul
-
Paul, I understand feeling like your work isn't up to stuff but don't feel like you need to drop out. If it were me I'd send a point I had already made that I felt was better or I'd just try again. I feel like most people wouldn't mind if they had to wait longer for a point you felt was right. I don't want you to feel pressured, this is supposed to be fun. Just relax and take your time.
-
I shipped today...Ben ought to get his point late next week.
Thanks, Paul
-
Awesome!
-
Received my point from Parnell today! It looks fantastic, also came with 2 very nice spalls of what I'm guessing is coral. Thank you very much Parnell, my son was very excited to help me open the package.

Glad it arrived and one piece and you and your son enjoyed, Allyn.
The point and pieces are Flint Ridge from OH. I usually pay Roy Miller a visit each summer when visiting family and pick up some of the material. Good stuff!
-
Ew nice score Allyn. Looks like you have that ridged figured out pretty good Parnell
Bjrogg
-
I did like the material but I already broke one of the pieces. I've been on a real losing streak lately

Like I’ve said many times. It just has a way of keeping me humble.

Got a beaut from Bonepile. Still got to get mine out.
-
Has everyone received a point this year?
-
No I haven’t received mine yet.
-
Ok I texted you.

No worry Ben. Perfect timing. I’m finally catching up and getting enough time to appreciate it.
Nice point and thanks for the extra goodies
Maybe we can meet someday. I’ve always wanted to go to Yosemite. If I do I’ll make sure to give you a shout
Thanks Bjrogg

Ben nice work

I'm glad you received your goodie box Brian, looks like a nice point. I think everyone is taken care of now. Hope to do this again next year.

Yup I’m happy Allyn. It’s good to be done with harvest now and catch my breath.

Thanks for doing the PITH.
