sometime get some 1″ pvc and a 1″ copper cap. wrap the end of the pipe with ecectrical tape till the cap fits tight and them put some on the outside to hold it on. makes one of the best boppers for obsidian and dacite

It depends on where you live. I buy mine online. the knap-in is the best place to buy though.

isolating is done by taking several small flakes off the edge of either side of the platform before striking the intended flake.
