« on: February 26, 2013, 07:37:30 pm »
I finally got around to finishing my display of Florida Native points. all are made from FL native stone and made with abo tools and heat treated under fire..cept for the Pinellas that I got from a flake from Mullet...I reckon that one was done in a toaster... so I guess I have a ...... in the woodpile.lol   here is what they are- Top Row left to right: Hillsborough made from colorful Hernando County chert, Newnan made from Premium Ocala chert, Osceola Greenbrier made from Citrus county cap chert.
Bottom row left to right:  Bolen Plain made from colorful Citrus county Agatized Coral, Hernando made from Brooksville Ridge Chert,  Gilchrist made from Citrus county chert, Marion made from Hernando county chert, Pinellas made from creamy Alafia river Coral.

Thanks Tracy... Oh but it has a value though ;)  they're only reproductions!  If they were real, then they might be invaluable. I could never part with that kind of collection!

Very nice set of points, Ryan. They all look authenic. by the way, had a great time at the Dade City Knap-In, glad you were able to camp with us and wish I had gotten a picture of your tent.

Hey Ryan, it was good meeting you at the knap-in. Man thats a very nice set of points, where do you get your research from in repo those?
Aslo love the tent set up. Did you make it?  I've thought of trying someting like it with painters tarps and sealing with some home brew. Would be good for a drive up camp with the wife. I like to hang in hammoc and thin tarp over when alone. if you have drawings/plans or any info for it, that would be nice. Thanks,
