Okay, this may be an image request that maybe even Frank can't help out with but I thought I'd throw it out there. I'm looking for images of stone age tools (arrowheads, etc.)
I've done the google image thing and haven't come up with much that works.

Chris - I used to do some knapping - If you do a search for "knapping" or "flint knapping" you'll find plenty of photos of stuff from guys like me who knap new stuff that is done like old stuff - well you get the idea- DB

Dennis, those are very nice! Actually beautiful to look at. And I though my HUSBAND was a Neanderthal... his hand planes and chisels are absolutely space age compared to those!

Dee - Thanks for the compliment - Those are all obsidian knife blades and several are translucent if nothing else pretty to look at - even if I do say so myself- DB

Sort of implied I wasn't going to have them. I must admit though, not much, best I could find were these 30 for you.

Thanks for all the help folks. Frank, I never doubted you for a minute...Dennis, nice work. I used to work for a historic site in Missouri that hosted one of the biggest knap-ins in the nation. Nice work! I can make functional tools but they aren't too pretty.
I actually am putting the wheels in motion (pun intended) to start a prehistoric skills group here in town and was making up some posters. I was thinking of cutting them out in the shape of a stone point or something with the laser to be an eye catcher.
Thanks again,
Chris

Experience is a wonderful thing.
It enables you to recognize a mistake when you make it again.
Every silver lining has a cloud around it
