Title: My first ever point for a PITH
Post by: Tracker0721 on October 01, 2015, 02:33:13 pm

Joined the PITH over on paleoplanet. Figured I could make up something good and feel really proud of this point. Many will look at it and see a not so awesome point, but I literally picked up one of my worst looking broken rocks and bopped this out. It was about 6" long and had a 2" high ridge down the middle and a bad cup to it. So I feel like it turned out swell. Also, 36 degrees while knapping this morning.

I see a very fine point. If you have a diamond scribe, scratch your initials or other mark in it. If not, mark it with something. If you don't have a diamond scribe, you can find them on the internet for about $15 - $20.
