New Knapper
« on: October 14, 2012, 10:42:22 pm »
I have a Friend who's daughter would love to get into knapping i have the rock for her to mess with i am just looking for some tools for her to use....  I don't need much for her now I am just looking to get her started.  Would like maybe a 1/2" and 1" bopper and maybe someone has a old ishi stick laying around.. Let me know she really enjoys breaking rock with me and would like to be able do it more...

Thanks
Seider

Copper boppers are very easy to make. My pressure flakers are made from an oak dowel I got at Home Depot.
