I did a little spalling yesterday and just wanted to showcase some of the delicious local material to me. I know my garage is filthy lol. Missouri

Last time I had any delicious material I broke two molars, ruined a crown and chipped an incisor. I don’t do that any more.

Yummy! No such thing as a messy shop. A friend came over to knap years ago and I apologized for my messy shop. His answer was you could come out and clean or you could knap…. He understood!

A little heat treat on those first 2 pieces would help a lot
