Title: Last post of the weekend
Post by: FlintWalker on February 01, 2010, 12:35:51 am
I finished up that bi-face and made a couple more Pine trees.  :o
 The bigger tree is some kind of Tn chert, Ft. Payne I think.  ???   The little one is Carter Cave flint from NE Ky.

Tim, that dove is about 3/8" thick. It's 5" long and 2-1/4" wide, about the biggest thing I've made so far.
 That biggest pine tree was the top half of a broken bi-face.  I've been recycling a lot of broken stuff lately.
