Having Fun

[Hal Gorges]

A little something different for a change..This is my stash so far, I usually have a goal in mind and when I achieve it I tend to lose interest so some are lacking a wee bit i of edgework, I don’t remember when I started but it was cooler weather earlier this year and when it turned warm I slowed way down ..in the pics are points from glass, Florida chert, mahogany and dacite..and in pic 2 is my first little paleo, done about a month ago...Thanks for lookin..

Who said Old Dogs can’t learn new tricks? Apparently, some can learn howl like Wolf!

[Hal Gorges]

[Ron Kelley]

Hey Hal, Those are some well made points. There's always more to learn in this hobby. That's one thing that makes it so interesting.

[Hal Gorges]

Thanks Ron..Next project, I’m gonna spall a coral head and get a 🦃 roaster, I think I’d like messin around with that..lots to learn, every stone knaps different.it’s therapy for me during this crazy lockdown.

[Ron Kelley]

Hey Hal, I always heat-treat agatized coral. I have had no luck knapping it raw. You want to spall it first before the heat-treat.

[Hal Gorges]

Thx. Ron.
