Very nice man! I find that soft glass much harder to work than stone...good work!

Real nice!  You do good work!  I will have to get a piece of my smoked desk top loose to work on! After I get the bow finished, and the arrows and a couple strings!  And get some more learning and coaching on knapping!

Thanks bowmo. That's a nice compliment. Always looks to me like everything you make ends up smooth as glass. I did get some stone at Marshall this year. I really need to get hitting it. It's been awhile.
Thanks Jerry. All it take is lots and lots and lots and more practice. And of coarse material you don't mind turning into gravel. Seriously though if you watch about 300 hours of YouTube and pound on a five gallon bucket of rocks and the lightbulb turns on, it's very rewarding and relaxing.

Thanks Rob. Our wheat is really hurting for some rain, but the rest of our crops look ok. Black Beans came up a little on the pecky side. The small plants don't need much rain yet but pretty soon there going to. A lot of the state has been wet, but we've been missing it. The weeds a doing great.lol

i love the glass blades and points because you can see the lines
 through it and the light shines thru.

Thanks bronco611. I like the glass cause it's free. Besides that there's nothing but BS on the TV anyway. I do want to start on some stone again though.
