Good lesson, Hoss. We have a quarry site in Providence that shows many still attached bowl forms. I found a complete small bowl blank in one of my corn fields years ago, freshly chiseled off the outcrop and circular in shape, but hollowing out not started. Many of our sites are within a short distance of the largest soapstone quarry in southeast New England. Thanks for posting the video.
