Happy Forth of July!    I'll try and complete a couple this weekend.   All I have is Obsidian.    These Arredondo and Hernando points seem quite large.    Were these originally used as Atlatl points?

Man Bone, your arredondo is nice! Lots better than mine. I like it.

Here is my attempt at both points.I have never made these types before so be easy on me.  :P I also didn't have any native material so I used Peoria.

Jaeger, those look like ghost points. Very cool by all so far. I have been trying to make something worth posting. So far they have been broken or turned out not looking like either of the challenge points. I wil keep trying.

ceiling fan light , those glass slabs are easy but crumbly if you have been chipping creek rock.I think glass is probably the easiest  stuff to try.
