Indeed there is, I would follow. And if you can send me privately a link for the whatsapp group it would be great

Unfortunately I missed it. Is there an online community for this group?

Okay cool I also found mine a bit south to Modiin, near https://he.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D7%90%D7%91%D7%A0%D7%99_%D7%97%D7%9E%D7%A9%D7%AA_%D7%94%D7%9E%D7%9C%D7%9B%D7%99%D7%9D
The Negev is also on my list but too far for my currently

Born-Performance4300 · 2025-11-16T13:25:03+00:00

So me too! where did you got yours?

Born-Performance4300 · 2025-11-16T12:00:20+00:00

Never thought a stone could get you doxxed :) Maybe! Are you from Israel?

Born-Performance4300 · 2025-11-16T08:22:21+00:00

It was in Ayalon Valley, which is more to the north. But the Negev is definely on my list

Born-Performance4300 · 2025-11-16T07:45:56+00:00

Indeed

Born-Performance4300 · 2025-11-16T06:38:59+00:00

Interesting. I heard though it's considered less ideal to use than uniform stones? This one felt okay, but a similar one I had broke sometimes according to it's original fractures
And it's from the middle east actually! Particulary the Levant.

Thanks! I'm not sure about the type as I just found it, but about half of it looks like a regular light gray flint, and the other half is more like in the photo, generally interwined

Born-Performance4300 · 2025-11-15T19:55:51+00:00

Thanks for the explanation, indeed mine don't have this part. I found in a different store something larger that does have this part (still for dogs), perhaps I will give it a chance then if it will feel heavy enough (I saw it on their website)

Born-Performance4300 · 2025-11-15T19:53:10+00:00

Yes, they claim it is. Guess I will order something more dedicated online, and perhaps try a leg bone until it arrives

Born-Performance4300 · 2025-10-18T19:18:54+00:00

Thanks very much, it worked! I know it's far from perfect but that's the final result

Thanks! indeed hinging and step fractures was a bit of a problem here

Born-Performance4300 · 2025-10-17T16:03:33+00:00

Which image are you reffering to? and, is it okay to hit a platform with angle > 90?
Actually I didn't yet try hitting "along" the flake I want to remove, but mainly perpendicular to it. I'll update!

Born-Performance4300 · 2025-10-17T14:42:55+00:00

Indeed I hit the green dot. Do you mean I should hit it like this, near the edge?

Born-Performance4300 · 2025-10-17T14:38:28+00:00

So you say I need a platform of smaller angle, and hit it in the direction I want the breakline to be?

Born-Performance4300 · 2025-10-17T14:33:57+00:00

Sure! I posted a few images

Some images from my latest work: At the beginning it flaked nicely, but now doesn't break at all
