Josh's new hobby

[trystinn]

Our brother-in-law, Ramsey, is a metallurgist. He's traveled the world collecting some of the most interesting artifacts and antiques. Which can be a bit startling, as that collection involves very large knives, skulls and any manner of other oddities. Which includes some interesting hobbies like Damascus sword making and flint napping. The latter of which Josh has now picked up so we were sent home with an instruction booklet, several arrow heads Josh made in Florida and half dozen tools to nap.

Pros - cheap hobby, as rocks get thrown up on the beaches constantly

Cons - buckets worth of rocks everywhere and bruised hands

whines and drools because we don't own enough Damascus and would like more...

Is the skull Tibetan by any chance?

I've no idea, I never managed to get him to talk about it. The skull was dark and decorated, the teeth bright and perfect.

You and Josh are an interesting pair.

Oh yes, indeed. In our case, opposites did attract. :)
