Nice work RB! I saw this first on the forum. I need to work on shaping the rock for many of my preps. Seems to make a big aesthetic difference

That thangg is beautifullll, did you prepare it?

Wowza!!

Great work!

I have never seen an ammonite with dorsal spines before. Superb.

1:55 is it juste or did you cut through another big one on the back of the rock?

lovely work as always

holy st i have never thought i'd live to see an *oreodont*

Very cool indeed!

Great crab prep. You mentioned what we like to see in you videos. I wouldn't change a thing. This one was very helpful. I like seeing the final stages were you fix and touch up. I need to work on mine alot more. Anyway keep them coming and look forward to the next one🦀

That's laughable it's that big. I didn't know what to expect when you were turning the rock over here, but man that's by far the biggest I've ever seen

Those Waters must have been absolutely rich with nutrients, that's gargantuan

That's absolutely amazing!

Once had a cop coprolite that had little bones and everything in it, you could see like a little jaw in there. Oh it was so intricate and it was a nice sizeable turd too that I had gotten from my grandparents. Well anyways it had been stolen but as it goes

Seriously, you have some of the best specimens I've seen out of anybody yet. Thank you for sharing

I take it most of what you're finding is on the west coast Northern California on up to maybe Vancouver and stuff?

So far you have some of the best specimens I've seen yet. Nice very nice

Aren't you a least bit curious about what's inside of it and you those soft tissues actually become fossilized also?

👍

I didn’t even know you could find crabs out there but it makes sense. You’re one lucky crab man!

Wow. Lost for words on this one.🦀😍.

very nice 👍

Wow that one is awesome. Love to see a close up on that. 🦀 that is on my list to find one. I got a few more murisa crabs. Probably spelled that wrong. But one has the legs and possible claws but looks to be disfigured unfortunately

Way cool!

Great video!

Love your videos!!

Put it out as a RUclips short. It'll get lots of views. 👍👍👍👍👍

Wowza! That was fantastic!!

👍👍👍👍👍

Ahhh, if only it was always that easy to tell. Would save a lot of time.

That fossil is a thing of great beauty. Fun to watch the various processes. Well done. 👍

Wowza!

That was a really cool project, thanks for sharing that! I won a round concretion on eBay and it's about three pounds. I'm certainly not expecting a sawfish but I don't really know what to expect at all! This was helpful in seeing how you go about it. If I may ask, do you sell any of these? I've seen some slabs like the "average size" fish you have there for as low as $25. I'm curious how hard or easy it would be to make money on these given just how long it all takes. Any input you have is appreciated!

Excellent!

just remembered your channel! comin back after 5 months!

Great video.

Silly question, how did you know there was a fossilized crab in there before you cut it?

Woah is right! Such a cool association, thanks for sharing rb

very nice video.....thank you....

Ha! Another hilarious prep method ron! Thanks for uploading. Have you ever tried the ‘using a hand drill method’? Works just as well as your shot gun prepping method!

Looks like you are in a roller coaster with some slipping wheels and in the end you slam the bastard, but finally a beauty is born! But did you really do this only with a grinder and a hammer???

Very nice!)

I have been finding these for years . I grew up in n.w Oregon and I still get 20 of them a year and I have about 200 plus other crabs. And I found one place where there are 100s of pea crab in real soft matrix.

Cool 🦀

The stone the fish is embedded in adds to the beauty of the fossil. Just think. Unseen for 50 million years until you came along. Wow.

Great job and great fish! Can't wait till the next one. In the Netherlands we do not have rocks and mountains with fossils, only heavy clay and sand. Well, in the far south (Limburg) do we have limy soil with some fossils.

Great work! What a beauty! Let me know if you ever decide to part with it!

Sounds like the fossil isnt the only thing thats horny in this vid 😅

Cool ammonite. Though I believe there called spines instead of horns. Any way great prep work.
