I love some of the chips I find . After a rain on the hunting lease we have in Georgia it's like sea shells ! lol in my field of sand in S Georgia. It's a camp site.

I would bet some of those would have a little edge work. I wouldn't find that many flakes without finding some with a worked edge. Just little flake Tools.
Oh for sure Gary ..see the red one I am holding its a snapped base. I wish I could say the one on the upper left is a half of a crescent . It's unifaced so smooth on the bottom and worked around the edges . Once in awhile when I go through the pile I find a base or tip . Give them to my friend kids that
are the next generation of dirt kickers ...

I had always thought about taking my pottery shards, and gluing them to an existent pot or mug, and see what it looks like. I'm sure I could piece them together pretty close.
Scropion , that is my absolute favorite , way back when I first joined I posted a red Kirk point
and Hoss helped and said it was an Elora . I bought a stone and mineral book and it looks to be
Jasper. I always pick those flakes up .
Gary, I am actually thinking of doing that to a small outdoor table with shards that don't have to much history , meaning amazing stamps .
There are so many I might do that .

I love the chips also. Usually have a bucket full! I also take a bucket and fill it with dirt. Because im never ready to leave. But if i have company with me, they are. Lol. So i take a bucket home to look through.

vase .
