Arrow point
« on: May 03, 2011, 10:21:15 pm »
Found this small piece of flint hiding on the bottom of one of my buckets. Don't remember where it came form but it made a decent point . Sorry the notches are a little off, I had some trouble with one of them. Tried to make the other match.

i cant tell that theres anything wrong with the notches

you must be your own worst critic
always striving for better
i always wanted a harley,untill it became the "thing to ride"

I would rather walk than drive anything else. It has never left me stranded.

     Hot dang, boy that is saweet! :o  yeah, sorry about the notches being off..... Hah, You should see much my notches are off.  No I mean they are off.  Every time I try to notch, I get just about to where it really looks nice, and one or both sides are off, as in broke off! :'(
