Title: More free stuff
Post by: bjrogg on August 26, 2016, 10:29:06 pm

This one was a really nice colored piece from the free stuff box that someone had put nasty stacks in almost all the way around. I was amazed how nice this stuff worked, I'm thinking it's Flint Ridge. I picked on area steps where closest to edge had to give up a little size but then just worked like a dream. It's so thin the light flows through it like a stain glass window. It's nice and sharpe too. Man I really wish I was going to the ridge.

Thanks Bone for the I.d. and Eddie for the confirmation of the I.d. Never worked coral or flint ridge. What ever it is it sure knapps nice and seems pretty durable.

It was more than worth the price. Thanks for giving my cousin the free stuff at Marshall

Thanks Jaxenro, Thanks Zuma yes Marshall really helped me a lot. I got to meet a lot of different interesting people and pick their brains, and except their generosity. I also did good buying stone, snake skins, and a few bow staves that all would have cost double or more just for shipping. The trade blanket was very nice to. I know Guy told me  kiddingly that the vendors don't what to come there because we're to cheap and don't buy anything we make all our stuff,but they had great deals and I helped support a half dozen or more.

That's a good looking point.
