Paul, was that the same stuff you sent me? Dang that stuff is tough!!!! I still have not been able to make anything from it. Heat treating I bet will help but. Dang thats tough stuff!!! I think I really apreciate obsidian now. My 1/2" thick copper rod looks like its been torn apart after trying to spall that stuff.

Eddie the video will be cool. Last time I did one I was shown scampering up a tree,  :-[ avoiding some mean looking Black Russian Boars. Yea, yea, yea, It was 30 years ago when I was a person lighter.  ;D  Damn, I didn't know I could climb a tree that fast.

P.S. Beautiful "stuff" Eddie. Someday???????

  Thanks Dick,I was hoping to make it to Hickory.But with gas the way it is and the hunt the following weekend,I really couldn't afford it.Georgia charges for a hunting licence for pigs on top of that.Ya'll have fun.

Yeah, Eddie. bout all I've seen of the hogs around here is their tails dissapearing into the brush, I guess if the chips were down and they were cornered the story might change.

Hey D, sorry - haven't been checking the ole laptop very often. Yep that's the same stuff......did I mention it's tough?  ;D. Your right of course, if you heat treat it'll help, but if your'e trying to spall it out with a half inch rod you may go insane ;D. I use a copper hammer I made, and have solid copper boppers from 1 1/2" on down. Spall em first then treat, should help. If you need more victims let me know.

Ha, I actually read somewhere that a victim is a person who heats the rock and drips water on it to pop a flake off. Don't try that unless you just want to see a good pop, and ruin your rock. :)
