Thanks Tower!  I don't know what the heck is going on either.  Either something with my hard drive or I have a virus.  Keeps freezing up and not showing stuff that I send or have purchased from other sites... Too much crap going on, wrecked my truck getting to work tonight in a blizzard, tore exhaust system right off...oh well  I will get it out to Cowboy as soon as I make it home!

So, I get this box of rocks from Majuba Tom.  Cool, I says... until I opened the box.  Wow!  Check out how neatly packaged everything is!!   ;D  Can't wait to get started on making points from this stuff!

Very Nice rocks...I thought it was Omaha steaks for a minute..lol  One thing I learned is sometimes u can't get too carried away with packaging as sharp edges and flakes will cut through the box... Can't wait to see some points!

Made it to town today and found a box of rocks from Terry (1442) and all I could think about was hunting points!!  These rocks are the perfect size for hunting points.  A couple of them reminded me of CraftyJack and his bent knee method of reduction!  I can tell you this if Terry learned to knapp using these stones then he jumped in the hard way.  Thanks for setting up this trade!  Sorry I can't send some pictures!  Joe

 I got home and found a box from Sasquach. It's some kind of rock from Texas, not sure what it is and I'll get a picture up if I can get home before dark. I did hit on a few pieces and it had a pleasant little bell sound as a nice, long flake rolled off. Can't wait to play with some.

Sure thing mullet! I guess we all owe Tower a big thanks. Without his leadership on this site none of us would have these cool packages in the mail this Christmas season.  Let us know if you can identify the big stones( coral stuff)
