    Once you regain your "C-legs", be sure to post some pics of your work.  We'd all like to see it. 

    And, by the way,  Happy Birthday.  Just saw it on your page.

    Sounds to me like you're on "Chat", and not on a comment panel.

    I'm trying to figure out that website address you have in your profile.  I was wanting to check out your site but that actually looks like maybe it's really an e-mail address?

    Do you have a website?  If so what's the address so I can visit?

     

    Thanks.  I should hasve looked at your profile before asking questions about that piece of rainbow obsidian I would have known that you are a flintknapper.

    If you meen iKC, yes, this is a place for stone blades.  iKC is the place for all things sharp and pointy, be it made of carbon steel or flint.

    "CC" generally means "courtisy copy".  When you send an e'mail all people that recieve the message can also see the cc recipients e-mail address also.

    Unless I'm doing business, I always use the BCC, which is "Blind courtisy copy".  These addresses can not be seen by others.  It's kind of a security feature that prevents others from accessing someone olses e-mail addresses.

    Hope this helps.

    If you're sending a message to one or more people directly, use the "TO" location.  If you want someone to be notified about the message, use the "CC" also.  When you use either of these, their e-mail addresses will be visible to everyone else.  If you want to hide everyons e_mail address, use the "BCC".

    When ever I send messages to more than one person I always use the "BCC", in order to keep my friends e-mail addresses private.

  • Randall Vaughn

    Hey Chipmonk those were a Christmas present from my wife a few years back. We find old arrowheads here on our farm so she thought she would get me those. They are nice work I wish I could do work like you guys do I've watched knappers work and they make it look so easy.

    Happy Birthday my friend.  I hope today was all sunshine and knives!

  • Jan Carter

    If you are looking at the custom makers, feel free to sell in there Chipmonk.  That rule is there so if someone joins and we dont know them well, we can set some ground rules.  I think I know you well enough to know you will stay within the group.  Good luck, sell away!!
