I would look into finding areas to quarry Onandaga Chert?

I saw there are pockets by Syracuse.

Keep us posted!

If anyone makes that information public, it will be gone before you get there. Just sayin'.

The guys from the Genesee Valley Flintknapper's Association should know someone who can provide you with stone. I would go on their Facebook page and ask someone to contact you.
