What kind of jewelry are you going to make? Just wondering. Oh, and how much flint is there?

Hey Sean, I got all my flint on a trade with Llana. I'm making mostly penants, earings, an with this flint think I might try some wire wrap on leather cords. I have a backer, but the jump rings I ordered FROM FINDINGKING OVER A MONTH AGO have not arrived so I can finish the pieces. But I'm not upset at FINDINGKING (SUCKS) or anything cookie |

That's pretty cool Cookie, I like the color. Can't wait to see your finished pieces.

Shorty,
Ummm, Llana flint? It's out of her yard, so Madina TX flint is the best I can do! Wish I had a better camera, it really did turn out well, glassy shine. I like that most of the pieces were small enough to make jewlery from.

Hey cookie, I'll take your word on it Have you ever tried one of those disposable digital camera's? I wonder if it would be worth a try? Have a great day! John |

Bearcreek,
I did, and all they do is put your really bad pics on a disc so you can download them. If I even had a 35mm that i could get a digital disc processed to it would be better. On this "free form designer cab" thing , I just couldn't resist, my tumbled cab was so close to the size and shape of the Ebay guys.
"$10.00, do I hear $10.00, and $20.00 now, can I get $20.00...."
