ok sound great. I have been learning to reduce and wanted to try and set up the nipple you all have been using.

took a little time yesterday to modify the jig. had a 5" novaculite piece set up. had a lot of fractures in it but decided to flute it anyway. on the clean side i ran a 4 1/2 " flute. then watched the whole piece shatter when i fluted the other side. jesse, before long i will get this jig to flute a 5-6" cumby. im still having a tough time getting the ridge set up. i know what i need to do. i just cant get myself to stop going for that last thinning flake.  ;D this piece of novaculite was definetly set up properly. the ridge work was damn near perfect.

That sound real exciting. Could you take a photo of the ridge before you shoot the flake and an after shoot. I would really like to see what that looks like.
