How to achieve a regular preform. Lots of instruction.

Hitting marshma)lows , hitting a loaf of bread and someone sitting their butt in mud . I fully appreciate these references. Really makes an entertaining as well as educational video. Thank you! Keep up the great work!

[@Bradmoore1979]

Thanks Michael!😁

[@chrispayne2710]

Great video Brad. Now I can thin the hornstone I got from you.😂

[@linklesstennessee2078]

Good information saved it I’ll watch again

I find a lot of flint here in East Tennessee when rock hunting

[@scottt1904]

Thx for the video. It really helps me understand more!!

[@Bradmoore1979]

You’re welcome

[@robwilcox2854]

Always nice to revisit taking clunky spalls and making a nice preform😎🤙excellent video

[@Bradmoore1979]

Thanks Rob!

[@michaelwhiteside1011]

Can't wait to see the finished point. Love hornstone

[@Severe_Deceit]

Really enjoy your videos and the explanations you give. I’ve been knapping for 6 years and am constantly learning. Thanks for sharing.

[@Bradmoore1979]

You’re welcome, thanks for watching

An ass track not crack lol. Good work man. Killer material!

[@Bradmoore1979]

Thanks!! 🤙😆

[@francisbertucci1344]

Thanks for the video, i have a lot of obsidian i "try" but getting better.

[@Bradmoore1979]

You’re welcome, just keep at it👍

[@stevenbenson5322]

I haven't seen all your videos but in my opinion this one is the best. Ive been wanting to learn free hand percussion and this helped me alot. The last two points i posted were started with your technics. Than you

[@Bradmoore1979]

Awesome! Thanks Steve!

[@JimMain1971]

Really informative. The bevel flip beveling hopefully will help me thinning. Great video Brad!

[@Bradmoore1979]

Thank you

[@clintevans3886]

Thanks for taking the time to teach.

[@Bradmoore1979]

You’re welcome

[@stringbean585]

Very informative, thank you. I have a couple half nodules of hornstone just like that. Now I feel I can tackle them.

[@Bradmoore1979]

Awesome! Thanks! Glad to help.

[@dacrowrose2]

Thanks a lot bro. A lot of useful information, been waiting for a video like this , great. How long and at what heat? That stuff is working super fantastic.

[@Bradmoore1979]

Thanks! This is HornStone. It’s raw.

[@dirtcrawler1]

I have only been at this for a month but i seem to get the best thinning flakes when i pull back a little on the strike. Seems like skinning that copper back away from the edge while striking grabs better and helps peel the flake.

[@Bradmoore1979]

I agree!👍👍

[@arvilmogensen1945]

Strange cortex. Generally, it’s chalky and will never detach as a flake. My own experience is to get rid of that edge cortex as early as possible because I have never seen anything like the raw rock you started with. I would have used Indirect right off the bat so there was access to the good stuff.

[@Bradmoore1979]

I agree. Sometimes it’s easier to get rid of it early on.
