Tallahatta Nights!!!
« on: January 22, 2010, 12:15:06 am »
Whewww!  Whewww!  :-\   ;D
 Here's a little sample of some of that Jeff Utley Tallahatta quartzite.
I'm not sure whether I like it, or hate it.  It'll sure tell on you when you screw up.

You were right Eddie. It'll work just fine with copper. It might do better with hammerstones or antler, but I couldn't do any better with those.  I did notice it seemed to work better with a heavy bopper as compared to a lighter one.   You'll come across spots in the rock that I don't think it would matter what ya hit it with...it ain't moving!
  I done most of the finish work on the Pickwick with antler. The beaver lake started out going to be a dalton until I checked my book and found no dalton points in that region.

Doesn't appear as if you had any problem with it Shannon. What steps? Those are nice! Those notches don't wanna run very deep though huh ::)?

They sure don't Paul.  Believe it or not though, that's as deep as I wanted them.  I made that one for Jeff to haft to an arrow.

 I doubt I could have went much farther anyway.
