I agree, make ya up a set and go huntin. Or one and go huntin, whatever you prefer. That's a fine second point right there :).
When you come upon a track or trail you do not know, follow it to the point of knowing.

Wow, that looks great.  You've got the talent for it, apparently.

Thanks again guys. Still a lot to learn. It took me quite a long time to make :/ but. Enjoyed every second of it! Sooooo much fun! I've got a couple bows in the works but I put them in the corner so I have room to knap:)

I'm having a hard time spalling off good chunks. Anybody know of a video? Or how to? On the subject.

Thanks again!

Way to go Piney! I did just the opposite. Started knapping and when the bow fever hit my knapping went on the back burner for about 3 years. Now I try and balance my time . Bow , rock , bow , rock

  Nice job, pinecone! Check out the local museums and you would be hard pressed to find examples as fine as that. The masters of the art on here do give you something to strive for  , but I would say you should be quite proud of that  one. Check out  "Allergichobbit"'s (Patrick Blank's) videos on youtube. Just about the most informative around.

You suck! And I want my points back!!  >:( send a guy some of my best work after 6 YEARS of practice and he shows me up on try 2!!! (grumble, grumble) Completely inconsiderate, that's what you are.

Nice work, Bryce! Once you get the hang of the spalling, you will probably enjoy that more than the pressure work!
