Killin time
« on: March 02, 2008, 08:48:46 pm »
We finally caught a break on the job here in Laredo. Whilst having a few brewskies and "killin time" I showed the guys some stuff about knapping. After awhile one of them challenged me to make a Chinese throwing star - I'd thought about it before but never done it. He wanted a four pointed one but I only saw three in that rock. Made a tommy hawk head for one guy and several other things - their all happy campers now. Should get a lot of work out of em tomorrow ;D. Oh yeah, one of em envited me to his place in OK to haul off some bodark - has ten acres to clear and he says it's all osage, great - I always get myself into these lovely messes :D.

That's pretty cool, Paul;. Don't think I'd want that star stuck between my eyes. :o

Progress might have been all right once but it's gone on for far too long.

I threatened to throw it in the guys chest (and he bared it to me) but I just didn't have the heart :D.

Thanks Eddie, yep I didn't know exactly where to put it. We should probably have a knapping section..

As a species we're fundamentally insane. Put more than two of us in a room, we pick sides and start dreaming up ways to kill one another.Why do you think we invented politics and religion.
