    The frame you made Dennis !!
    Mounted on glass with clear epoxy then slid into a slot and another sheet of glass slid into a slot above . Look at the bottom of the case you can see the slots .

      South fork. I’m guessing it takes just a tiny dab to hold a point on the glass. When’s all done -is the glue pretty much Un-detectable?

        Here's a couple of close ups no glue shows I'm guessing it was epoxy and Super Glue will work also . I 'm thinking about replacing one of my windows with a lot of translucent arrowheads .

            Tomf. I narrowed the ‘Borax’-down by The general shape/Squared stem -very thin-and especially the Flaking pattern/wide large thin !! pattern pretty much goes along with the current Overstreet. Definitely not a Rose springs. It was found in Northern CA.

              If it matches Overstreet it's a safe call, I guess.

              I just bought my first copy. 14th edition. Not finding many matches within my collection but learning plenty anyhow.

              Thanks for the specifics on Borax Lake.

                Here are a few from the Basin. Pictures aren't the best but here you are anyway.

                    Sage hen Jack, It's definitely not an Agate Basin even thought the shape might suggest that...….Its probably a un-notched Eastgate like the Agate Eastgate in one of my photos. I've come across quite a few camps where you'll find notched and un-notched together.

                  Point- It’s looks to have a very slight shoulder/stem. Some Alberta’s have that goin on, but if flaked in fairly thin flat Eastgate profile definitely not. Thanks for sharing. Nice stuff

                    Can't believe the quality of these points.

                    Magic.

                    Thanks for showing them.

                        I am going nuts looking at all this . Lived for 1/3 of my adult life roaming those mountains of Cal and didn’t thinks to look for points . Back then I was probably stepping on them . Being a 100 and all
                    Working...
