hi. i mainly am posting this to illustrate the sort of rock you should never even take home, let alone hit, and then i realize halfway through hitting it that i'm making such slow progress reducing the chert (that thinks it's granite) that i'll probably end up with an ugly point in maybe three weeks of continuous effort, so i switch rocks and hit some more, and then at some point mercifully end the video and retreat to my recovery-from-knapping kiosk to contemplate wasted time and silica. maybe. thanks in advance for watching and taking copious notes. freeze cracked

@@freezecracked8382 I came here to say the same thing. Your videos are absolutely the most helpful videos I’ve found. The fact that you take a second and look at what just happened every time you hit or flake taught me more than anything about how this works. Please continue making videos 👍

@billpace7026 Год назад

Thanks for coming back! I've been needing to see more of your work.

@johnbundy2703 2 года назад

Pulling flakes is something I have learned from your videos that I use often. Lately it’s been two steps forward and one back for me but I guess that’s still progress. Thanks for the video!

Hope you are yours are doing well. Your videos are so valuable to me. And with your chattering I get the feeling to I've known you for a long while. Take Care,

thanks for watching and commenting. glad the videos are of value. i try not to go back and watch my videos. :)

We have to rewatch your old ones since there are no new ones.

Thank you. Sir for the good videos, your wrong stuff is Much better than my right stuff? I appreciate your help in learning this skill. When I grow up I want to be just like you (some what). Thanks much it helps.

Honest feedback in case you want it. I entirely dismissed your channel at first just because of the low voice. Things felt too slow and quiet for my fried dopamine receptors, the background noise got in the way, visually it looked much like any other knapping content. Now it has become one of my favorites. Gold nuggets of knowledge with the right amount of humor. Wouldn't have known without sitting through a few minutes of video. My point is online success has only a bit to do with content quality, and a whole lot with attention grabbing.

@freezecracked8382 11 месяцев назад

my goal was to help others and i figured i'd do it my way or not do it at all because it was a lot of work and distraction for me. guess i kinda figure if folks want to know what i know, they have to put up with me long enough to find out. thanks for your interesting comments.

@NarheimArmoury 11 месяцев назад

@@freezecracked8382 Reasonable. I hope to see more of it. It's quite good, though I do think it could benefit from a better mic or fewer lawn mowing neighbors

I'm buying rocks from a place called World Outdoor Emporium. They never seem to have what I'm looking for. The clerk told me "plenty of rocks out there, I can help you load them up. You want root beer, go to A and W.

find the good burlington and high ridge. rootbeer is in texas.

I have such a hard time telling what "to-do" from what "not-to-do". Can never tell which I'm doing! Thanks for the instructional vid! lol

@freezecracked8382 2 года назад

well, i do actually have quite a bit of good information distributed through all the vids, but you just have to wade through the stuff to find the bits that are useful to you. the more you watch video the more you'll come to understand, and it does help a lot with reducing the complexity of trying to understand what isn't intuitive. thanks for watching. fc

Good video. Finger comment was great!!!

@freezecracked8382 2 года назад

it's important for fingers to realize that their personal reputations are at stake too during videography. i've trained them, and i expect them to just do their jobs now. thanks for watching.

That rock looks better than that concrete rock I gave you at Letchworth a few years ago,I still havn't gone down to the creek here to get more,I might sometime.

@freezecracked8382 2 года назад

that was an interesting trip. knauderack isn't the worst thing to hit :)

@wonderbubbles4092 6 месяцев назад

I can’t believe I missed this video. Must have been because I was wandering the western United States, looking for interesting stuff 😅

@lairdhaynes1986 2 года назад

If it's any consolation, I saw your name on a fb knappers' forum post earlier today. Some greenhorn showing off his rapid improvement of skill listed you among some of yt's finest lithics influencers. I think he mentioned you before even that Newman guy. You may want to consider getting a refund from that marketing survey team...

@freezecracked8382 2 года назад

i actually don't pay much attention to how much attention i get. i just dropped in, to see what condition my condition was in. [looking around]. thanks for watching and commenting. i may hire a propagandist if i can find one who'll accept payment in the form of bad rocks.
