Tim, wish I had a bunch of that stuff. I picked up a couple spalls at a knap-in last year, I think that was my last piece that I gave Jamie.

I'm in the same boat! Also, left my knapping kit at the Classic. Just do not know where my brain was! Man what a few days. My brain has still not gotten back into the fast pace of life here on the island after all the fun at the Classic!
