I took the same class as Dweste did and throughly enjoyed myself..then again i wasn't expecting to make an arrowhead my first time out. I like how the stone feels in my hands. So maybe it's just that we have two different ways of looking at it. I would actually like to make me some tools and get some glass, and other materials to just play with to see what i can do with it. I also thought i was going to bruise from it but didn't. Maybe just different touch with the stone, but i don't know. I could see useful things that could be made out of odd shaped bits.
