Ok sports fans here it is from another angle.  What made me suprised was the lack of convexity.  I really did not think this was going to work.  What fun!

It's amazing what you can do with the right angle, platform, accuracy and a sharp whack! Good one..

Dang, there are so many times I've tried to do that, but the only time it works is when I don't want it to. :'(  Wish you'd had a video cam running on that one.  Nice work.   George

I got up early to work a little more on this point.  I had to be very carful not to create steps because the large stack hinged when it was removed.  This left a valley on the left side that has to be handeled very carfully.

Looks like you might have a little rabbit point in the middle of that stack. Great wack! Love the different colors in the stone. Nice job all round. I would have wound up with two or more pieces of gravel back at the wack.

I wanted a point with a flat tail but I kept knocking off the other side when I was doing the final passes.  I did that three times lucky I left enough material on the tail to finish it out at 100 grains. Most of my points are 100 grains.
