I'll say your getting better - that's a fine looking point. Wish I'd had time to make ya some better Ishi's, I suppose those will do in a pinch though.

I'm gonna have to start doin all my arrows like this, they're much nicer looking than all mine that I've used modern tools for!

Congratulations on some beautiful arrows.

Absolutely fantastic out come given the circumstances, did you create that sandstone sander with the space for the shaft yourself?

Thanks Emperor......Yes, I made it myself out of sandstone.  I ground down the two halves on the concrete pad next to my shop.  I made the grooves with a series of chert flakes, starting with a sharp flake then progressing to "fatter" flakes until I was able to finish off with a rounded piece of sandstone.
