andcrossbows<BR>> <BR>> Yes, I know. I've been scouring the flint
knapping web sites for some<BR>> time. The hardest part was getting really
good material to flint knap.<BR>> Now, as it turns out, my family is from
Kahlifornia (Ahrnold way of<BR>> saying it) and own a cabin in Mammoth
Mountain which is on the Eastern<BR>> side of the Siera Nevadas. Mammoth
Mountain is in fact an extinct<BR>> volcano and the place is loaded with
obsideon. That's where Devils Post<BR>> Pile is, if you've ever heard of
that. So my siter, who lives in Los<BR>> Angeles, has been sniping obsideon
pieces for years and just happen to<BR>> have several suitable pieces in
her rock goarden when we visited last<BR>> Christmas. Guess where those
pieces are now? Yipper, NC. Now I just<BR>> need to give it a try.<BR>>
<BR>> But along those lines, You Tube has a great video on how to flint
knap<BR>> glass. They start with how to remove the thick bottom of a bottle
which<BR>> is what you use to flint knap. That sounds very doable. If the
point<BR>> breaks now I have a reason to drink another beer! "But honey,
I'm just<BR>> repairing my atlatl darts." Think she'll go for it?<BR>>
