two dart type points PICs
« on: April 08, 2008, 02:14:22 pm »
Two dart "generic" styled points.  Both Glass Buttes Obsidian.  Both all "abo" tools.  I was able to get them nice and thin.  I was afraid I'd end up with a bending fracture and four little arrow heads.

Great looking points. Now flute that mahogany one. It won't break- Eddie and Chris promise that it won't.  ;D

Yeah sure it won't break... How many times have I told myself that line???   ;D  Naw, I think it is to flat or thin to flute.  I've not ever had much luck fluting.  I need to learn that.

Very nice.  I almost bought me some mahogany from a guy at OJAM, but never made it back to his booth.  Pretty stuff.

Thanks for the compliments.  It's nice to have someone to share with. 

Yeah, the fluting thing isn't for me.  Sounds like I should send it off to someone and have them do it.  We could have a pass- along point ;D

In this case Paul it would eventually end up as community debutage!  ;D

For those of you who are into fluting,  how would a guy go about it?

  Grind on the base at an angle. Then chip an isolated platform in the center. Then you can either,if you feel lucky ;D Hit it downward with a bopper or do as It like I do. Take an Ishi stick and push down on the nipple while supporting it between your knees with a leather pad against the side you are fluting. Make sense?
