Hope you can do better with it than I can.  I start out with a big rock and end up with a MUCH smaller rock--if I am lucky, some of them end up a little pointy-shaped.  Please share what you can get out of it, to give me something to shoot for.

Received a box of so much awesomeness from Orrum I dunno if I can do justice with pictures. Petrified wood and coral as well all sorts of other nice rock. Super excited to start making points from that stuff. And then I got my box from Scott filled with goodies Burlington and hornstone. Sadly though his box looked as though USPS threw it out of a moving truck and they "repackaged" it but a few rocks now resemble gravel. Kinda sad about that especially because it happened at the boxes last stop before being delivered to me!

Hey Tracker glad you like your box! I was afraid I would send rocks and slabs that were not good. TRY that Owhyee Mountains cooked slabs of picture jasper from the Wild Horse Claim! I love them!

I got a real nice box of obsidian from Tracker 0721. Found it Friday when I came home from work.
Will post pics tomorrow cause I am just home for a quick pit stop this morning for a few minutes.

I received my box of goodies from Tracker.  Its a mix of obsidian, dacite, and what appears to be a piece of chert. Thanks Tracker I cant wait to try them out.

That chert to the best of my knowledge is Owl Creek Yellow. Found it while I was in Texas by following some old archeological maps in an area that used to be a rock hound picking spot.

The wife just texted me that a Flat Rate box just got to the house. Thanks, Don.

 If you have to pull the trigger, is it really archery?

Holy Cow, Don! I don't think you could have stuffed another rock in that box. The box could almost roll. :)
