Not the knee, I keep smacking my thumb on top of the point with the antler.  Almost as bad as doing with a hammer.  Duh@!!

I'm in, but I don't know if I'm gonna get any knapping time over here.  Dad has me replacing his tub with a shower.  Dang, I always used to get him to do  my work when he visited.  Now he's getting even. ???

Looks cool, I try to work on one this month. :)

Maybe one month we could do points from around the world.  ;)

Well here's my attempt.  Made it out of John's Burlington.  This is the first time that I have set out to reproduce an actual point.  I usually just chip away and hope something turns out.  Josh

Mr. Wirwicki, is that learn how to knapp?  Or learn to have fun?   ;)  Good to meet you at the classic!  Sorry I wasn't much for conversation (or pronounciation).  Bonepile's wine is to blame.  That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it.... >:D

Here's my first try. Made from raw New Braunfels flint. Think I'm gonna make a narrower one like the pic. Tower

Nice!  Is that linoleum instead of truck floorboard under your feet?  I've liked all the points so far.  Can't wait to get on it myself.
