I wonder if snake rib bones would make sharp hook needles, I don’t recall ever seeing any.

This is really interesting. The right sleeve being cocked-up bothers me, though— haha (seriously) hahaha

NibiruLives, in the video he mentions originally they would have used sandstone.

@V isions Sandstone seems pretty soft for that, but thanks anyway.

@NibiruLives If you mix sand and water on a flat rock, you get a surface very similar to sandpaper… I haven't tried it on bone yet, but it does the trick on rocks 🙂
