Looking good! If those are your first few points then we should enjoy seeing your progression in the next few months..
When you come upon a track or trail you do not know, follow it to the point of knowing.

Excellent points YB2. It does seem that the learning curve is much shorter for some people!   >:(

My crtique is you have not bled nearly enough nor broken nearly enough to have such a nice point to show. It was my understanding that there was an unspoken "ton of gravel" rule before one could begin posting quality pieces. You my friend seem to have not gotten the memo...

Knap on!   ;)

I was thinking that same thing myself!!  Luckily I have gotten the memo and I am breaking more rock and glass than I am making anything out of it!!!  Too funny stringman!!! 

The ribbing aside I am very jealous at your points!!  You are doing a great job!!!

Thanks you guys.

I think I have made up for lack of broken rock with all the blood I have lost knapping  ::) geez who makes these rules anyways!!!

I made another, but my "good" streak has ended, this one is not symmetrical to my eyes, will post pix after scouts
