Looking for Pine Pitch
« on: February 07, 2015, 09:22:12 pm »
Just got some stone points and am in need of some Pine Pitch to attach them. Anybody have some they are willing to offer up?

I think there is about a 1000 lbs of pitch in reserve among us primitives.  Someone should chime in soon.

PM me your address and i will send you some.  I think Patrick is lowballing on the 1000 pound estimate.

Do you have any evergreen trees around where you live? You can collect it yourself.

I have Eastern Red Cedar/Juniper. Will that produce good sap for glue?
