Our local radio station has all the shows within that genres of music they play, on thier website. I also somehow got signed up for emails from the only venue in town that would host the other genre I listen to.

I wouldn't be interested in much else. I'm not heart broken to not learn Taylor Swift is comming to town...

Ok so I made one of both the front and the back. I might have gone a little overboard with the back side.

My phone does bad in lower lighting so it may be too bright to really give it that nice flash, but hopefully it's not to bad.

I made a giphy account so hopefully this works, as I couldn't upload it straight to the site.

Edit: it uploaded all fuzzy cause it told me my internet connection was slow..but the SO can play Call of Duty just fine...

I'm unsure of this was cut into its shape or if grows naturally like this. The top of this is much more neat and squared then other examples I've seen online. Although, I did see that it becomes pretty brittle with heat, so if it was cut, i suppose it would have taken a real good technique...

Not just dallas, but Houston and Austin, as well. San antonio was about to follow suit, until this passed.

Yeah, i would never attempt to shape it more. I'm totally afraid it would just crumble. It wouldn't even be close to useable.

Super brave of you to try that. Although I bet it did look pretty awesome.

Sometimes I think of trying to shape other stones, especially ones that have already broken, but with my hoarder tendencies, im scared I would break it more and be left with nothing.

I always thought it looked like a knife...

But why put a clear coat on it? Is it a wax, like one would use on jade?

Its been bugging me. Hope your having fun, and you find lots of cool flint!

This is pretty cool. It's good to know there are locations open to the public where one can go and test their luck.

Only place I heard of before this, was the diamond field in Arkansas.
