Puget Sound Knappers

2014 Winter Break/Cabin Fever Knap-inReport

January 25th

Granite Falls, WA

Hosts Dave Pehling and Jim Dennis

Starting the 2014 Knapping Year the Right Way!
Hosts Dave and Jim set the table (literally)for first PSK knap-in of 2014.
Given the weather in the Pacific Northwest, this is one of the 'Indoor Knap-ins'.
Jim moved out his classic '68 302 Mustang to make room, fired up the wood stove and plugged in the crockpot of wild-game chili.
That was all that was needed for members of the PSK to spend the day knapping!
We had a good turnout - a bunch of the 'old-timers' plus some of the newest PSK members. As always there was plenty of rock and free instruction.
We even had time for a little competition in the form of a 2" Goat contest - won by Jim Smith - again!
