- Hi folks, It's been a while since I've knapped a percussion slab with indirect percussion on video, so I thought I'd do that instead of a clunker video today.
I was expecting this hornstone to be buttery goodness, but it turned out to be dry and harder than woodpecker lips.
I appreciate you watching.

Really useful video. I have ruined some slabs with direst percussion recently. I now have renewed hope after watching you do it with indirest percussion. Thank you so much!
You're welcome. Thanks for watching
Another good one.
Thanks for the video.
Thank you for watching Paul
Thankxou Dan and thanks to the other knapper.i will be sure to check it out
Curious...you don't ever seem to have to hit your rod very hard.what am I doing wrong that my rod gets bent and I have to stop and hammer it straight? Also can you explain the different angles I see you doing and what effect does it have once the flint is hit?
Hi Debbie, you want to be sure to strike the rod near the work piece. The farther from the tip you strike, the more energy idms losed. Also, try preloading a little pressure. I'll make a video showing my platforms, and I'll thr to explain angles.
Debbie. I'm sure Dan can make some videos that will help you understand. But in the meantime search Jack Crafty Angles & Platforms. Its video number 477 on his channel. He does a series of videos where he explains everything out pretty good. I learned alot from it. I'm sure you can too.
Thankyou for your reply to my questions.i will certainly look into it
