You have to have the stamp to ship it from a foreign country into the US.

It's not a problem shipping obsidian overseas.

I can send some preform cut slabs of obsidian.  Do you need any tools such as a hand pad, small copper flaker good for Obsidian, abraider, etc?  Let me know and I will get it in the mail next week when I get to town.  Come home safe!  Joe

Thanks for serving our country.
I don't have much glass/stone (actually I only have a little obsidian)...
But can you knap the bottoms of bottles? Broken glass?

PF Tippett:  Finally got to town this morning and posted a box of slab cut obsidian to the address at FOB SHANK you posted.  They told me it should take about seven days to get there so hope it arrives in tact.  Included is a small copper pointed hand flaker, an abrader stone, hand pad, and a copper pipe designed to remove the scrum before the last pass.  I will no doubt be ostracised for promoting slabs and copper!   ;D  I would like to tell you and all your buddies that I am grateful for your service!  Joe

Joe's a real generous man!

I send my pics to email and choose the small size when it prompts photo size to send and then copy photo to camera roll on the iPad via email. Small size usually doesn't get distorted this way.
