20 Minute Daysite Biface - Part 1, Hammerstone Direct Percussion

I did this quite a while ago, and I still haven't finished the piece but I'm going to start posting the videos anyways. Hopefully it will give me the motivation to finish it up and somehow auction it off. I haven't had much time for knapping lately, my plants and work have been taking up all my time! Going to take advantage of the nice summer weather and get back into it soon though.

Thanks for watching. Cheers.
