[Otoe Bow]

Nice job Billy.  I just pulled out a penny for reference and, that's small.

Thanks ya'll.  YEah, those points are pretty small, but that's the vast majority of what I make.  I just love those little points! 

[Hillbilly]

Nice looking points, y'all. Shannon, post that little blue/white coral Cahokia I gave you at the Classic-it's probably one of the better Cahokias I've done.

[Timo]

Nice job on them Billy,and you bet, that is about the actual size of alot of cahokia points. I'm awwed at how you can get those things notched.

[FlintWalker]

Will do Steve.    While I'm at it I'll post a couple I made at work yesterday too.

[FlintWalker]

Here ya go!  Hillbilly made the one on the left for me at the Classic. I made the next two yesterday at work and the last one today.  I don't know what the material is   It's just some stuff Jesse threw in my box.
 The banded obsidian point is from a piece Wade gave me.

I know this ain't the kind we're supposed to be posting for this challenge, but does anybody know what type this one most resembles?  I made it, but don't know what to call it

beautiful points guys. wish i could get the flake patterns all clean like you guys do. anyway heres a few i did. one is from root beer flint , the other from a chunk of rhyolite . both stones came from hillbilly. i like the rhyolite a lot . it took me a wehile to figure out that i needed a slightly higher platform to get past the inclusions in that stuff. next point should be better. the noviculite point came out a bit heavy but it should work

[Roger]

Man...yaw turnin out some nice stuff...I need to practice...

Jamie that RB is sweet. I bet its sharp too!

R.

[jamie]

sure is roger . got a nice piece of it still imbedded in my hand

[cowboy]

Damn, you guys are turnin out some points here! Nice work there Steve, Shannon, Jamie - I'm gonna have to get busy .

[Hillbilly]

Jamie, the rootbeer colored stuff is Knife River flint from North Dakota. Good job on those. That rhyolite is great for hunting points, gets sharp and won't hardly break. Ancient Chinese secret for the hangnails: heat it up and rub beeswax on it or hit it with a shot of Armor-all. No more hangnails.   Nice chippin', Outbackbob. Shannon, I think yours look better than mine.
