Wishbone glass point.
« on: May 14, 2014, 01:22:04 pm »
I found the bottom of an old Wishbone salad dressing bottle back up in the mangroves a few weeks ago when I was fishing out on my kayak in Lover's Key State Park.  The glass is amazingly better quality than the new stuff.  I did this one yesterday evening and is my fist actual glass head that I'd put on an arrow and hunt with.  It's sharp!

Haha!  Yeah, I've been racking up the broken rock for awhile.  I think things are starting to come together. 

Thanks, Tim!

I think you are right that older glass works better. Maybe they tempered it or annealed it different back then? I especially like the bottoms of the old brown glass Clorox bottles.

Nice point by the way. Find more glass!
