1:45 Hello Jack! I have watched many knappers on You Tube. You are far and away my favorite. I like your comments & I like your nontalking videos as well. I like the fact that you use al kind of tools, some of the the knapper says will not work. I learn by watching and and I learned to most watching you. I now have my tools made by myself and some knapable chert. Wish me luck! I am 75 and plan to use the indirect method as much as I can. I will let you know how it goes. Don B.
Just a thought If your dacite wants to flake flat/straight, then it will stop at the centre of a lens cross section blade. Perhaps the platform needs to be lower below the centre line?

1:45 Hello Jack! I have watched many knappers on You Tube. You are far and away my favorite. I like your comments & I like your nontalking videos as well. I like the fact that you use al kind of tools, some of the the knapper says will not work. I learn by watching and and I learned to most watching you. I now have my tools made by myself and some knapable chert. Wish me luck! I am 75 and plan to use the indirect method as much as I can. I will let you know how it goes. Don B.
Awesome! Thank you. And yes, let me know how it goes.
@8:00 truer words man…
Just a thought
If your dacite wants to flake flat/straight, then it will stop at the centre of a lens cross section blade.
Perhaps the platform needs to be lower below the centre line?
Yeah, dropping the edge a little usually helps.
In your video #340 sequential flat flakes leaving a 4 flat sided cross srction
The sweat stage.
Always
