   I cain't thank you enough for inviting me to the celebration and sharing your knaping knowledge. I learned more than I can remember from all of you. Hoped to meet a knapper meet four great ones instead. Made a leaded bopper, (1 inch) it's working out much better than my over-sized weightless ones. Pushing point in leg did wonders for my basal thinning. The slab turned out good and still in one peice.My favorite rock is now Buffalo River.Collected 20 pounds of glass for potential meltdown(blue, green,brown) I'm assuming you probably wont knap Sunday after going to the knap-in.Let me know the next time yall meet , I want to knap this time. Please thank the others for me also.Paul

   Glad you came and it was a pleasure.
   1" leaded boppers seem to work the best ...looks like it did from that preform.

   I live in Cedar Grove but work in Jackson.
   I've been knapping 8 years now ...don't do everything by the book as far as setting up
   platforms and stuff but i end up with the same results.I confuse most people with my knapping
   style....I'll give you a call sounds like a plan to me.
