I do realize it ❤️ very grateful
What a weird comment
@@kghhgkgk6322 she is probably poor and envious
Wow!@@jhonviel7381
Congrats on the new rock nerd toy!!! Yayyyyyyy lol 🤓🤓🤓
Nice work Taylor! Just to note for reference, as I don't know if anyone has mentioned this: Lake Superior Agates are very heat sensitive when it comes to grinding. Use lots of water and don't push very hard on them when sawing or grinding. You may already be aware of this. I don't know if the fractures on your stones were caused by this, but I have learned the hard way with fractures popping up when sawing, shaping and polishing them in the past.
Your personality is great for your show, u don't even like to listen to anyone else!!! You are perfect for this job young man!!! Thank you!!!
I just found your nice channel and it caused me to dig up some marbles I bought from an old gent, a retired railroad machinist, who was a rock hound. It's really made me appreciate his skill, bless him. There's an agate marble with bands and a big "eye" that is a marvel. I have a rock crystal marble and a jasper marble. He charged five bucks apiece! He also made jewelry from broken bits of carnival glass, blue Vicks glass, all polished and set in sterling. I always visited his shop in Ft Scott, KS, his name was Mr Ralph Miller, and he was a genius.
Dude. I neeeeeeeeddddd that space!!
Be aware of a couple of issues that happened to me with my 6inch cabking. The on/off button broke a small piece of metal inside the switch and would no longer turn on. You can easily replace as long as the screws that hold it to the body havent corroded. This happened within 3 months. The other thing is check your water pump to make sure it has a filter in it. Mine didnt and some small pieces of something got pumped into the water lines and had to be cleared to continue the water flow. I, eventually, had to replace my water pump. Good luck with your new toy. I love mine!
That Cab King is something else! It did a fantastic job on polishing and the magnetic end piece is really nice! The agates turned out beautifully even with the tiny fractures. Thanks for sharing!
I got the the 6" Cab King machine last year and I love it. Better than my old DP Genie that I sold after getting the new one.😁👍
It is so satisfying watching you work on these beautiful agates.
Cabking👍Size does matter😂
🤘🤘
That machine looks like so much fun, one day I hope to get one and take the polishing to the next level. I got some Dry Head Agate I think you would be able to polish very nicely with that beast I'll have to send some your way bro🍻
I use cab king and just love it. Taylor that wraparound polish was great on that darker agate. Good video 😎
Love it! ❤️ I can watch these videos all day! 🌹🤐
Its been a while since I have watched your videos, but it is always so pleasant to watch you polish your rocks
The polishing pad with the pink paste is hypnotic!!!!
Right?!
Congratulations on getting an 8 inch Cab King! Awesome polish and shine on the agates. I love the bots under the chalcedony in the left side of the cut one and the bands on the whole one.😍 Looking forward to seeing more polishing videos. Thanks for sharing Taylor!✌️🤠
Wow, congrats. Time to play!!!
Whenever my grandson and I are out and about we always search those parking lot dividers and stone garden beds. Last week alone we came home with 4 agates and two petoskey stones. Tons of chalcedony as well. We bring our pockets with random rocks and replace the ones we find with others. My wife thinks we have lost our minds, but the finds are right there. My mother in law had her driveway area and under porch done with gravel and we found so many petosky stones. Love the new Cab machine! We are still dremeling, but have dreams of lapidary equipment lol We both get so excited when we see you have new videos!
Wow, nice polish, nice machine! I remember when you cut your first rocks with a small tile saw. Your rock shop has come a long way and it looks great! Thank you for sharing the journey.
Me alegro que prosperes con las máquinas,seguro que todos vamos a disfrutar de ellas y de las ágatas maravillosas que están por descubrir.👍
It's definitely a great piece of equipment. Great video, sweet shop setup!
Beautiful polish on those stones 😊💙
I was fortunate enough to receive the same set up for my birthday about a year ago. A kid in a candy store is spot on. Great vids brotha! Can't wait to see what kind of jewelry and specimens you create!
I think they all turned out great.
So happy to see how far you have come from hand polishing to now. Keep on keeping on. You rock
I really appreciate that! Thanks for being with us since way back then ❤️
Omg mijo....nice machine 😍....I think I could use that for my nails....lol....I have thick nails 💅....lol....I can't wait to see all that you have on the shelves....😱
Fun machine!
Woohoohoo so shiny. I actually like the natural fracturing. Nice work happy hunting and shining
Wooooo hooooooo! After getting through a LONG crappy week, Agate Dad is here to save Friday! :) Hey! I found a rock I can't identify -- I tagged you in a FB post! :) Happy Agate Dad Friday!
Sorry to hear about the crummy week! The weekend is here!! 🎉
Awesome stuff man!! Sweet machine 👌
Just got mine. I’m so excited.
Nice!
I started with a 6” small machine and bought that 8” cabling 5 years ago love love it
Sorry cabking
Congratulations on the new cabber! That second agate is gorgeous! Great job! I have confidence that you’ll figure out how to refine that first agate. Anyway, you better get busy; you’ve got a lot of rocks to feed to that new machine!
Thanks for the video…that is an awesome machine! I was also looking behind you at your shelves and trying to see what was on them :). Maybe at some point you could do a tour of your shop area? It looks so organized and clean…shop goals! 😆
Nice job, if only I had one
WOW, BEAUTIFUL
Can tell you are happy with your new polish machine.
Veryyyyy
WHAT?!? Niiiiiiiiice! 💎🤠
Congratulations on the new machine addition 😎
Thanks bud!
@@AgateDad you're welcome 🙂
Actually the best longest lasting machine I've ever used is an "All U Need" 8 inch flat lap with upgrade to all diamond laps. It lasted for 14 years before it didn't turn anymore it has a sealed bearing system and if you use your wheels correctly you can go 5 years before changing them and 1000's of cabs preforms for faceting and flat polishing for intarsia. It really is all you need. Good luck with your channel I can tell you enjoy it.
The finish on the stones are fantastic. Nice job, Taylor!
Thanks man!
@@AgateDad you're welcome!
Awesome video! That cab king had to get broken in on something, sometime! those little beauties were worth it. And even though the flat one had fracture lines, its still beautiful. Its like wrinkles. We call those character lines! Everyone has its own story to tell!
It’ll continue to be broken in and used and loved for many years!
That’s on my “someday” list
Thanks Dad dude. We are ordering ours tonight.
Let me know if you have any questions! It's a great unit!
Hey man is it really you?!? I’m just a guy that just picked up a fancy brand new 6 inch cab king. Out looking for some tips and tricks and imagine my surprise when I see your name of all people
Wow 🌼
man...I need this machine, haha... I still just have a rubber drums and sanding belts kinds + issues
Hey bro! Those look awesome! Did you know the cabking has a water system on the side for your polishing pads thag way you don’t have to dry polish that bad boy!
I did know that, the manual says it’s optional if the stone is overheating
I watched the Kingsley North Cabber 6 video and then watched this one. It looks like it has more space between the wheels.
Definitely, it is a size bigger. There’s more pros to this unit in my opinion, both good units though.
A dab of super glue and then polish it down.
Dang, 15k grit!! That is so high. I thought I did great going to 8k. Is the polish difference really significant?
We will be ordering another CABKING CABBING MACHINE. WE already have a 6" CabKing Machine and now we will be ordering a 8" CabKing Machine and WE JUST WANT TO KNOW- HOW DO YOU LIKE THE RIZ DIAMOND WHEELS???
Love them! If you get the rez wheels, make sure to use my discount code! “Agatedad”, feel free to email or message with any questions!
How do you grade/sort your rocks?
OK, I just paused it to write this. At the 2 minute mark, you say that there's a really cool feature you're going to show us at the end. It's a chip holder, isn't it? And possibly some sort of dip receptacle. I'm going to hit the comment button now and watch to see. I'll comment again after.
🤣 genius! Need to add that asap!
I'm not afraid to say I was wrong, the magnetic wall is cool. It's no chip holder, mind you. Still cool though. I'm willing to bet that the magnetic attraction goes straight through the wall and you could get a little steel disc and use that to hold a bag of chips there.
How long did it take you to polish the second one, from start to finish?
I think you have used both the Kingsley North 6" cabber and now the 8" CABKING. Do you like the CABKING better? Based on what I'm seeing the CABKING looks better!!
How is this machine going so far? Seeing any dents in the wheels? And changes in sound or anything at all? Looking to buy one soon hopefully, also the polishing pad looked awesome spinning with the dots it looked like a spiral haha
Did you buy one yet?
I do have a question. I lost service posting it the first time and I don’t think it posted. If I double dipped my apologies. It says in the book if you’ve got a vibration then the wheels may have gotten out of alignment in shipping and to simply re align them. That is all it says on the matter though. Just wondering if I should dress them or if there is some other way
but what do the rocks do?
Who's your manicurist agate daddy?
I have a question, which is the better machine. Kingsley North Cabber 6(8)inch or Cabking 6(8)inch? I would like to buy one. Living in Germany. Thanks for your answer. Ingo
How long to use the 6" cabking so it doesn't get hot
What do you mean?
Been looking at these but I can’t really justify 2000$ plus cost for wheels, as much as I would like to
Eeek! Isn’t that polishing pad supposed to be whetted?
Nice looking machine! I’m sticking to tumbling because of resources. But no way I’d pass on one if I could swing it!
Only if your stone is overheating.
Nice, how long did those take you?
About an hour or so
@@AgateDad , thanks. That CabKing is a bad boy.
So why did you switch from the kingsley North machine to the cabking? I noticed you haven't had the kingsley one long before you got the cabking. As well I notice the kingsley was making alot of noise on one of the last videos you made with it.
I switched to Cabking a long time ago because they are the same company as Hi Tech Diamond and I have a longer relationship with them. After a year of use I also think cabking is a superior product, the other one was a great unit but had many more flaws.
@@AgateDad well hope they have worked out the flaws because I just purchased one and will be help hopefully tomorrow.
Im noticing my cab machine is leaving scratches on the crystals from the diamond cut metal blade but they’re not coming off form the other stages do you have any recomendations?
What stages do you use and what wheels do you use on what machine?!
@@AgateDad i got the vevor cab machine, 80, 220,600,1200,3000 grit but the first two wheels are metal that leave scratches through out the end of the process
Why did you go from Kingsley unit to Cabking?
Check out my 3 year Q&A video, i talk about it in that video.
What a question! The CabKing is way better...
Did the other one break?
Nope
Oooooooo
How does your cabking compare to your kingsly?I purchased a 6" cabking a few days ago and has a severe vibration issue.Also the plastic trays seem cheap.I was thinking about returning it and buying a kingsly but was wondering if I should keep it and see if the seller can help me with the vibration issue.Thanks!
I think you should try to troubleshoot the issues before settling for a lesser model. I've never thought the trays were cheap or had vibration issues. Call them and talk to them.
@@AgateDad Thanks for the feedback!
What are you doing with your old cab machine. Well it's not really even that old just wondering.
I’ll have it for a backup 👍
Existe um método de fabricar diamantes e rubis. Em 1 hora eu fiz de átomos de carbono, um pequeno diamante visivelmente aos olhos, o primeiro passo é formar um átomo seguido de outro e depois automáticamente vão ficando triângulo equiláteros. Os rubis põe-se um átomo de ferro no meio do triângulo de carbono. É possível..

Lucky you.
You look just like Elias from Clerks 2 and its dope.
Interesting!
