This is the other point.
I made a antler indirect tool and made the preform with it from a Georgetown flake.
Pressure flaked it with antler and started the notches with antler but didn't get too far before I had to get the copper flaker out and restart the notches after stalling them out close to the edge with the antler.
I just starting to use antler, and I like it very much,  I get the edges to strong and don't know the set up angles needed yet but
Antler is awesome to knap with

Thanks

For some reason I feel like I could use more sleep though.

Here's another one I made with the antler stick
