I hope I can get that good one day. I broke about 2 pounds of Obsidian last night and only ended up with a lot of broken obsidian.

Nice looking batch, there, Bubby. I have a feeling I'm going to be bored $-------, sitting home for two months and can't chip. So give me some more to look at. ;D

Bub, you have to use your hip and thigh muscles pressure flaking. I have to be carefull for the first month or two not to have the stainless joint pop out. I can't bend my knee past 90 dgs for awhile.

You should build one of those pressure flaking jigs from a pipe in a board, Eddie.  I know it's not your thing but hey, it could keep you busy.

You could always make a jig and knap some slabs, I've seen several types, may not be what you're used to but it would keep ya busy,

Hey bub, just came over here to see what the rock busters have posted lately and noticed that a few of the points in your picture are in my possession now ;D, I have to get them hafted up soon.  A little over two weeks and hunting season begins here, certainly hope to get some blood on 'em. Can't wait!
