Home grown stone
« on: January 31, 2017, 12:38:52 pm »
These aren't my best points, but there some of my favorite. All of these where made from stone I found. Most started out as odd shaped, difficult to work with hidden flaws and freeze cracks. It's all raw uncooked stone and thought me a lot. Feel free to add any home grown stone points you've made to this post. Thanks for looking

Nothing wrong with those.

Thanks everyone. Jeb all but the 3 white ones in the center are bay port chert, most from the same chert ball. Some are from stone put on he windmill access roads. 1442 yes they are more special to me when I make them from stone I've found, especially from my farm. NC good eye, we have some beautiful rats here when they get primed up for winter. I personally prefer rat fur over mink. Thanks for looking everyone
