Large piece of raw TX tabular chert. (edit) I thought this was tabular chert. It's actually a very flat piece of amoeba chert. Different ball game.
Part 2 is uploading (if you dont see it yet) and I think there will be a part 3 and maybe a part 4. We'll see.

My buddy whom passed away Bout a year ago would do this all day, we hunted arrowheads several days at a time. But he crafted some artifacts then planted them, then he’d take other friends out and they would find them. I still laugh my ass off! You remind me of him! Thank you!

Man, your flakes are bigger and of better quality than most of the stones I start out with. Maybe I should stop calling my work "stone knapping" and call it "pebble knapping" instead.

Patrick if you take a moose time and drill a hole through the end and mount it with a bolt so that is swivels. Mount it at a comfortable height for you. You can take bifaces of that size and thin quickly with large flakes. The power you can generate is unreal.

I have watched a couple of your videos so far. I am a retired home builder and I’m heavy into woodworking and metal working.I love anything that I can do with my hands…..I have never attempted what you do but have really developed an interest after watching you. So, I am as green of a beginner as possible…. I already have a million questions. But to start with, what is the material you use for abrasion? And would it be possible to see the collection of tools you use? Thanks, Stan….. fellow Texan!

The material used for abraiding is a broken grinding wheel. I use various grits but my favorite is course grit. You can do a KZfaq search for "jack crafty tools" and take a look. I have lots of videos so they should keep you busy for a while.

I wonder if those lipped flakes occur because that convex platform is so strong it just won't break. Would the force be transferred up higher where the angle is shallower? This is another great video. I'm learning loads watching you work.

Yeah, sometimes a strong platform can cause a lip fracture.

Also looking at one of your other videos and you mentioned your are allergic to dogs. I can tell by looking at your hands that you don't drink enough water which can alert the histamine in your body. Drinking water is like taking a benadryl only natural.

your billet should have been havier,, that would give longer flake, and thus reduce the center.
