Rootbeer pics
« on: April 02, 2011, 05:49:50 pm »
Thought I would show yall some reduction pics. Found this piece of rootbeer hiding in one of my stockpiles. 1st pic is the rock. 2nd is after all percussion is finished. 3rd pic is after all the pressuer flaking is done. 4th pic is the finished point. I would like it a little thinner, but it just didn't happen today. Hope you like them.

Very nice, I just love that dark color.  I have got to start playing with the glass and rock I have in the shop.  Gonna have to take a break from the bows for awhile.  So many fun hobbies, so little time... ???
