Paul I don't know if I'm going to get anything out of it or not, so far I've broke 3 hammerstones on it without one decent spall >:(
Oh well I will go to the park and get some more eh :D jamie if I can ever get the hang of spalling this stuff I will be more than happy to send ya some.
If anyone has a really large dogwood billet to trade let me know eh, mine are too small, more like pressure flakers ;)

  I think I would stack that up on the Smelter, you know, kinda trade it for the slag. and I'd spall that stuff with a brick hammer. Have fun.
