WHAT IS HIGH GRADE STONE?
Anything you can run a 1/2" or more flake with a pressure flaker.
HEAT TREATING:
Heat treat a few FLAKES of everything you got except HIGH GRADE Raw Stone, Obsidian, Dacite, Basalt, Hornstone, Sonora, Fort Payne, or Rhyolite. Start with flakes and spalls less than 1" thick for 200°F for 24 hours to dry it out. Then raise the temp to 275°F and hold for 4 hours. Let cool down for 12 hours. Chip and compare. If no difference, put back I at 200°F for 1/2 hour, then raise to 275 for 1/2 hour, then raise to 325 for 4 hours.
Let cool down for 12 hours. Chip and compare. If no difference, put back in at 200°F for 1/2 hour, then raise to 275 for 1/2 hour, then raise to 325 for 1/2 hour, the raise to 375 for 4 hours.
Repeat with temp going up 50°F until you reach 600°F or nice chippable stone. Whichever comes first. If no good result, or things blow up, let us know.

I really appreciate you taking your time to explain this to the Beginners, Zigzag, From the ends to the middle thin to keep more rigid during flaking,keep convex, Things that I will remember to do, Here's a crazy question can you make a bopper out of Abrade Stone? Now I'm off to the second video, Again much appreciated you doing this!

I suppose it's possible to make a bopper out of just about anything. So, yes. 😁

@Jason1975ism 10 месяцев назад

I've experimented with small pebbles and mounted them like boppers and I made indirect punches with a pebble. I've never had any luck with them being good tools. Your results might vary but for me it was a dud.

@@miketufts9765 as my college knapping teacher said on our first day of class "Today you are going to make little rocks out of big rocks". And then he said that every time the rock breaks we would learn from it. Lss, I'm quite an accomplished knapper today, enjoying the art immensely. Just enjoy every flake! It's just a rock and rocks get broken everywhere everyday in nature. Go crazy! Happy knapping!

For some reason mahogany is the only type I ever cut myself on or get in my shoes. Just learning this stuff and it gives me trouble, but I’m able to do the most with tiny hammerstones and antler. I can only imagine copper on these is like butter

I just got myself a box of mixed materials with some obsidian and chert and watched your video on the efficient use of stone along with this one. Hoping to crack into it here soon because I've mostly been restricted to bottle bottoms and random chert-y rocks scattered around (On Des Moines Lobe in Iowa so it's all glacial till) so I'm excited to use some real knapping material. Super appreciative of your videos :)

@cantseetheforestforthetree9673 7 месяцев назад

Your advise at 9:34 is perhaps not the best advise depending on the aims and personality of the beginning knapper. Personally I would advise the opposite as a general rule with the exception being for the case where the learning knapper is specifically trying to learn to make large bifaces (a goal that beginning knappers should shelf until they have fully internalized a sense for the basics of conchoidal fracture, flaking mechanics, and perhaps most importantly for support) . Because of the fact that the underlying flaking mechanics and reduction strategies are effectively the same at any scale, and because rock is a limited, oftentimes expensive resource, the most economical strategy for internalizing a basic understanding of conchoidal fracture, flaking mechanics, reduction strategies etc. is to work a large core only so far as to remove a couple of usable flakes at a time and then switching to further reducing, refining, and finishing those flakes into finished points before then removing a few more flakes from the main core and repeating the process. Such a strategy has many benefits to the beginning knapper. For one thing, by removing any concern for producing the largest possible biface from the core, and instead focusing on producing usable flakes, the core will provide the greatest number of opportunities for the student to progress through each phase of the reduction process from rough stone to finished piece, thus maximizing the educational potential of each stone. In addition, it allows one’s body, muscle memory etc. to more efficiently internalize the feeling of larger scale reduction without overwhelming the senses by aimlessly wailing on a stone until it is a pile of mostly useless gravel and It also slows the reduction of the core which will minimize the risk of destroying the stone outright due to the poor decision making that come with the frustration that accompanies the inexperience of a beginner in the face of a desire to make large pieces.

@KnapperJackCrafty 7 месяцев назад

You are under the assumption that a beginner can remove reasonably large, flat flakes from a large core in such a way that does not ruin the large core for future use. This is an advanced skill.

@cantseetheforestforthetree9673 7 месяцев назад

@@KnapperJackCrafty there is no need for flakes to either be particularly large or flat to be useful for further reduction into bifacial tools, or to provide educational opportunities, and as a former beginning knapper myself, I can attest to the fact that it does not require anything close to an advanced level of skill to produce useful flakes from a core, particularly when one’s focus is on the flake itself instead of on the core…I can say from experience that I was ruining far more Rock chasing large bifaces than I was once I was offered and accepted the advise I provided above and began focusing on making as many tools as possible from each core instead of focusing on one single biface and treating everything else as trash, and from that perspective it is exceedingly difficult to render a core completely ruined for future use given that cores that are not usable for the production of a large biface can still be useful for producing numerous usable flakes. And I will say that once a I changed my focus and strategy as described above my skill level improved at a far greater pace owing to the fact that I was making more effective use of my time, and in the months following I quickly became proficient at making large bifaces while still producing numerous usable flakes from the core because, as I see it, focusing on learning to make usable flakes taught me to slow down and read the stone better, and most critically, taught me to maximize the size of the finished biface by using as much material as necessary to set up the ideal platform characteristics and surface contours required for removing maximally efficient thinning flakes as opposed to what I had previously been doing which was to try to maximize size by skimping on platform prep and contouring flakes which resulted in causing myself problems that cost me size due to chasing those self inflicted issues later in the reduction process. But again, I will reiterate that the efficacy of this approach will largely depend on the personality of the individual since persons such as yourself who work primarily by feel, and who do not have an interest in taking the slower, more analytical approach will not be well primed to make the most of such a strategy, and the “ just do it enough times that you develop a feel for it” approach is every bit as valid, it’s just likely to be significantly more resource intensive/ less efficient, and to be clear, that is still going to be a huge part of the learning process regardless of how one approaches it.
