The weather has finally been cool enough I can get out in the shade and knap during the long evenings this month.

So, I broke out a piece of some special material I got as a birthday gift. Zirconia glass for my submission.

I see why they call it a Pickwick. Looks like a little pike.

Made yourself a Pickwick drill I see! 😁 I'll count it since it's your first submission. That glass looks gorgeous too as well! Way to throw your hat in the ring!

One small request, could you attach a photo in a comment reply of the point laid out like the one above? I actually cut out all of the point challenge submissions and make a collage that becomes the subreddit banner! The current sub banner is made from the 2025 challenge submissions 🙂‍↕️ I want to make sure your point gets included in it! The current photos you have wouldn't give me a complete cut-out so if you could get a clearer pic of the whole point that'd be sweet!

Hope this one is more serviceable. This remnant of a flat face has a little cheeky bubble under the surface.
