So this video almost didn’t come out tonight. I had so many little things go wrong while filming and editing it, but I hope you enjoy it. It was a challenge but a good one. Thank you to those who helped me out. You know who you are. I’ll get to replying to any and all comments this week, and just wish you all a great couple weeks ahead. Until the next one, happy hounding, and much love from down under.
Go wrong!? No you did an awesome job with the video. Don't let what you enjoy doing turn into something that stresses you out, if that happens it is no longer fun.
I watched from start to finish. Awesome all the way through. Do what you love and thanks for bringing us with. I hunt rocks with my kids and would love to cut and polish a few like you have. Makes me want to go out and look for treasure mostly.
My sweet friend, I hate that you felt so anxious. You're great! Never forget this. You started this out having fun. Keep having fun because we all have fun right along with you😄. I'm glad you left the blue on the way you did. I like as much of a natural look as possible and still keep the shine of a Polish if that makes sense 😉
Chrysti Gilbert Keener Yeah that makes total sense, it’s a beautiful contrast the rough and the polish. Thank you genuinely for your beautiful comment chrysti. 🙏✨
I remember you said, you work in child care. I don't know what age they are, but I have used agates and jaspers with ugly exteriors to teach kids about inner beauty. How some people are broken and damaged on the outside, but that we are all beautiful treasures on the inside. The looks on their faces when they see the inner beauty of the rock is priceless!
Man, that, that is a brilliant idea. I hope you don’t mind, but I am definitely going to use that. Thank you mate. Honestly, such a brilliant brilliant idea.
@@truckerenoch8824 thats awesome, specially in an age where people only look and judge the outside of others and objects. Those verry people are broken on the inside. God bless you
G'day, Good Show mate, thanks for the big email as well, can't wait to see the special video you are producing about the gifts everyone set ya mate, have a great day and tell Benny and Pauly Hello! Richard
This is great because it shows you don’t need super expensive or even specific lapidary equipment to do some top notch cutting and polishing work. It’s been the most insightful video I’ve found thus far.
Remember Mate...hobbies are for releasing tension, not creating it😉. You can take a deep breath now because all your pieces can out stunning, especially the last one!!!! Hugs from Oregon
Thank you winnie, honestly, it was an eye opener. I love doing this so much and sharing it, but I think I started over thinking this one. I wanted to share that for its honesty, but you are 110% correct. I’ve learnt to keep my mind in check when need be. I really appreciate your comment so much. Big love from down here ☺️👍
If there was any mistakes I don’t know if we would care. Your videos are so relaxing and it feels like I’m sitting down with an old friend and just talking and enjoying what Mother Nature gives us to look at. Your love of rock hounding and cutting and polishing had become one of my favorite things to watch. Thank you and all involved.
Kim Moore Thank you Kim, that’s such a cool way of describing it. I see it as the same hey. Just chatting with friends and sharing the rocks. I’m pretty lucky to have such cool people to share these times with. 😊
Buddy I don't know how you do it, but every polish video is better than the last. The 1st basalt one, and the moss agates though. All these beauties are breathtaking! They are tube agates, the blue one, Pauley gouged out! Beautiful ones all! Thank you for sharing!!!
gina lanning Heyyyyy gina! Thank you sis, honestly I’m so lucky to be able to find these pieces of art to work with. I hope you are well my friend. Ohhhh and I went out last week hounding with a good friend and what we were finding was some beautiful red jaspers. I’ll be making a video of it in a few weeks but I remember you said you’d like something red, so I’ll be making sure to save you some to send you. Hopefully before Christmas. Hooooooooopefully 🤞🤞🤞😊
Your wife is your true Gem, you know that right? We enjoy watching you enjoy your hobby. We don’t care if your videos are not perfect. That’s not what this is about. Enjoy yourself, and we are enjoying you. That basalt with agate bubbles and the moss agate... amazing!!!!!
Katherine Doughty Heyyyyyy Kath! I was just thinking of you the other day and hoping you’re doin well. Ha! I like that, a collab with Mother Nature. That’s exactly what it is. You’re a legend mate, and thank you! Fingers crossed we find some bluuuuuuuuuue ✨🐨
I lovr your videos i have really bad morning anxiety every day and i wake up and watch u cut and hound and it reminds me how beautiful our earth is and it sets me in a good mind frame so thank u for making this even tho u had anxiety!
kiersten gallagher Ah see! That is exactly why I left it in the video, it’s always a little bit easier to deal with knowing you’re not the only one. I’ve had it since a child. It’s good sometimes and others it’s horrible. But it always passes. That’s what you gotta remember, it will pass. Thank you for sharing Kiersten 😊
Great video! Because of your videos, and the detailed discriptions you give, my rock hounding trips are much more fun, interesting, and informed. Please keep the videos coming of those amazing finds!
Wow. Those were absolutely beautiful. You did a wonderful job of cutting and polishing. There is art in each piece, and you have great vision in bringing it out. Keep up the great work. Enjoy the videos and look forward to the next. Have a great week. Davin
About that anxiety...look mate I love when you download videos, but I think we all want you to love what you do on your downtime too . Love the vids and the rocks too!!
Karina Rivera Thank you Karina, yeah it can be daunting sometimes, I always want to deliver my best, but the challenge sometimes is as precious as the sense of achievement I get when I’m able to pop these videos up for you guys. I get so much enjoyment out of the whole process. I just love it 😉👍
Ah, I felt for you when you were talking about the anxiety you felt. Don't go there! Rockhounding isn't about success or failure - it's about the journey. Just relax and enjoy the process - the good, the bad and the ugly. Anybody who's ever been there will understand.
Thank you Katy. Yeah anxiety has been a beast I’ve had to make friends with since a kid, don’t know why it crept up on me that day but working with those beauties certainly did the trick to ease the nerves 😉 Thank you again for your kind message 🙏
Wow... love what you’re doing here Leaving some rough and a beautiful smooth polish... really shows off the beauty of these rocks That moss agate with the blue... stunning!
Love the new video Frookie. The editing and voice over were spot on. That basalt with all the little inclusions/bubbles is so gorgeous, and the nodule at the end with dendrite 💋.The rocks you collected polished up beautifully. We always love a new video from you, but listen to your wife, she is a very smart cookie. We love watching you more because of your passion and excitement for what you are doing. If it’s not fun, you are working too hard. Please don’t work too hard.
betojdesigns Ohhh thank you guys. Honestly, I love this more than I can say, and although there are times where I’m challenged, the sense of achievement and community that comes from the whole process is so precious to me. Thank you honestly for your kind words. 😊 I’m enjoying it more and more each day with each rock and each new good person I get to meet. May you guys have a brilliant week ahead my friend.
dora fajardo Hey! Dora in T.J! I’m not sure if that’s what you call it but my brother used to live in Southern California and would always refer to Tijuana as tj. 😊 Hola from Australia!!!
I really love how you leave a part untouched when you’re polishing, it’s like a window into its life before it came into your hands! Thank you for being so real in your videos, your reflections and pondering always bring such wisdom, thank you for being vulnerable! My family and I love your videos, almost every day ends with us watching your videos while I sit with a glass of wine and a handful of rocks! My toddlers even pretend to be you when we are out and about and they have become quite good at finding carnelian!
You do an amazing job with your treasures. I agree with you... I really like the way you leave a rough part. The contrast of rough and polished is eye catching. A good reminder to not judge by appearances in any aspect of life. Even the ugliest of rocks has some hidden beauty for those who take time to look deeper. Appreciation for the small gems too.
Those formations on that last agate are what many normally refer to as "dendrites." So I would classify that as a dendritic agate. Now which mineral the dendrites are made of is hard to say by the image alone, but it is a stunner! So glad you were able to rescue that one!
Always excited to see the videos each week. 🥽🔎⚒Thanks Jessie for all your hard work and dedication to this channel, we love following your journey. ✌💕🧘♀️
You are an artist in every aspect. Your senses are dialed in to your hobby, when and where to go, who goes along and what path to take, what to pick up or keep,...etc. You are one with your element! An absolute brilliant piece of work, this video. So calming, so ethereal. A combination of your voice, which is very soothing, the artistic angst which draws in the viewer and the final result, or money shot of the absolute gems upon completion. We love you and we love who you are and what you do. Namaste😊 ...Theo from southern California.
Theo θEΩ Dude I’m not gonna lie, I got chills reading that. Thank you man, genuinely massively, just thank you. You and yours have a beautiful week ahead mate! Namaste 🙏
I love the first....dark brown with clear ovals, etc...The way you cut and polished that was wonderful. I wouldn't recognize its potential just seeing it rough.
I super love u doing it too! that moss agate is stunning, but ur favourite is mine too as soon as i saw it before u cut and polished it took my breath away!! Nothing stunning here in England , just little bits found on the beach, how i wish i lived where u do ! 😊
Chris Clover 😊 thank you Chris 😊 Yeah that one is just full of amazing ness. I wish I could take you all out with us. We are spoilt so much. Have a great week ahead Chris. Thank you again 👍
I seriously enjoy watching you. Your humility is endearing! Also, I LOVE the way you show contrast of rough to polish on the stones. I agree you should see the the rock as it is and can be.
Thank you. The rocks are so beautiful. I had a thought while watching this. This"hobby" is so much more. It's a primal connection to our earth and our relationship to nature in its infinate glory. Enjoy your art as the wonder it is.✌️
Such awesome specimens! Great job and remember this is only for you and your fun we all get to see it as a bonus! The tunnel bubble rock is soooooooooooo fun!
Hu Keas Yeah thank you Hu Keas, I get it often since I was a kid, so I’ve made friends with it, but sometimes I have to prove it wrong. I felt it was important to show that it’s common and okay to talk about. If that makes sense 😊 Thank you!!!
Listen to your lovely wife Jessie..Enjoy your hobbie mate..It doesn't matter what video content you include because you have a genuine passion for all things of a rocky nature, and that passion is what I, and I'm sure others wait to see each fortnight, so go at it mate..We will be waiting patiently for more, especially if we get our senses filled with specimens like those mate..Stunning plain and simple..
Wayneo's World Thank you wayneo mate. I learnt a lot from doing this one, mainly, that I just need to chill haha! But I genuinely love the challenge as well. It’s so rewarding and sharing it with you guys just double or even triples my enjoyment. I hope you have a great couple of weeks until next time bud! 😉👍
As someone with anxiety who is also just learning how to sand and polish Oregon Agates, this is such a helpful video. You're doing great and I deeply appreciate you showing your process. You're awesome. 💖 Don't give up!
stinkygraykitty Haha, yeah these blades won’t cut you, they’re called continuous which means they don’t have teeth so to speak. They can cut your fingernail though. 😁
@@Rookie_Rockounding OMG still sort of scary....but hey I am my father's daughter...Mr Power Tool :) I guess if there was a mishap I could blame Mr Stinky ;)
I’m familiar with anxiety with how to and where to make my cuts. I'm glad your wife (Karie)? gave your confidence to carry on. I will remember that for my projects. I really don't want to be disappointed with a rock that I really love but need to see the center. I will go on so I make magic with a polishing pad. Carry on and thank you for your continued support with your videos. God Bless.
Diana Jusselin Thank you Diana, yeah she’s (Carly I mumble when I speak haha) she’s a smart cookie. But it’s so very true. Sometimes it takes stepping away, to bring the right mind frame to carry on. Anxiety is something I’ve had since childhood, it can be hard, but it makes us enjoy the time we don’t have it even more. 😊🙏
You did a awesome job! Sometimes you just have too make your self happy. And I hope you take care of that sweet little woman you have, y'all are 2 beautiful people. I do lapidary it makes me happy, I love taking a ugly rock and making it beautiful. That's why I've said...... I have never seen a ugly rock. 😉😊 Just keep on keeping on, we all love seeing you happy. You da man! I hope you have a great weekend mate. Cheers!
#1 Catfishunter Miller Oh man thank you mate! Honestly. You’re right, I remember you first saying that, there’s no such thing as an ugly rock. So so true! Thank you again, you honestly rock!!! Have an awesome week ahead my friend. 👍
Happy Friday RR, thanks for sharing the goods with us nerdy rockhounding tubers.👀 Glad you were finally able to relax, sure hope you know that all of us here have ZERO expectations of you and are just super grateful that you take the time to film, edit and share your experiences and adventures with the rest of us! 👍 IMO The hobby is for your satisfaction my friend, if the filming, editing and conceiving of content and such takes away from that experience, then I would recommend re-focusing on why you rockhound in the first place! I doubt there are many expectations so please just enjoy the experiences and the rest will fall into place~ I totally appreciate how stressful editing clips and piecing it together in some kind of cohesive fashion can be and personally, I think that you do an above average job sir of cobbling together interesting content for us to enjoy~ 😁 Just love the variety of materials you find and expose the hearts of, multiple colors and mixes of minerals makes for fun and interesting finds. Not sure if your anxiety was about making cuts that bring out the best in the rock or if it was about the quality of the material afterwords or if that was just about taking good video? Regardless, I hope you know that we all come here. not because you find the best materials or create the best cabs or freeforms etc but because you are a really good person with a great personality who has a wonderful passion for a very cool hobby and you have 100% of my support! Ok so the rock at 7:28 with the common opal is magnificent like caramel candy. Very much enjoyed hearing your thoughts on each stone and your intentions when cutting and polishing, I do that when I pick em up, try to consider what I'd do with it before I put it in the bag, if I don't see it I leave it~ PS.. Those look similar to dendrites, moss growths like plants inside the chalcedony~ Video was great, even if you didn't think so, thanks again have a great weekend my friend~
Backcountry with Shaughn Heyyyy Shaughn! Man thank you dude. No I just have always had anxiety since a kid. Sometimes it’s a beast though, but mostly, it’s just from overthinking haha. I got a busy brain. I’ve learnt to make friends with it though, and I think I was just overthinking everything. I really appreciate your help man. And ultimately, overcoming it, gives such a greater sense of achievement knowing that it was all for nought, the anxiety I mean Haha! Man those agates were a surprising even to me, just so grateful I get to relax and collect them, and also work with them. Just so lucky and I love sharing the whole thing with you mate. I hope your week is a brilliant one brother 👊🍻
That last stone turned out gorgeous. Next time you feel anxious about cutting your stones, just gather them up and go sit under a tree for a bit. Have a conversation with them, out loud or in your noggin, and see what they have to tell you. I have to do that with the things I plant sometimes because they may not like where I put them and don't do so well, so I just sit and look at them until I can "see" where they are really going to be happy. Then I move them to that place. It sounds weird but it works for me. I like all your productions. Your best girl is right...enjoy your hobbies. They are what keeps us sane...for the most part! 😊
Roxanna Weaver Oh man roxanna that’s seriously such a great idea. I’m actually going to do that. I know what you mean about plants, they tell us so much about what they want. Nature is just amazing. Haha! I love that “it keeps us sain... for the most part”🤣👌
Damn, that first one you polished almost looked like a filled in scoria! Beautifully polished! Another great video man! It takes about 4 seconds to forget you're voicing over. You got that dialed in. Cheers!
Ah man thanks dude, I owe it to you with the support you’ve given me as a mate when I’ve been at some hectic points. That storm happened last night and I actually didn’t have time to script anything so all the voice overs were off the cuff... 😣 It was intense to film at the last minute and then realise that it was all washed out by the wind. Haha! Hectic brother. Just hectic 🤣 Hope you have a solid day at work man. I’ll talk soon brother. 🐨🐺
You just keep reminding me why I need to get a polishing wheel. I need to get my hands on some of that basalt with all the little inclusions of chalcedony in it! it's too amazing!
Mahtaju Strachan Oh man polishing is so damn fun man! You gotta do it. I hope to have a set of wheels one day. One day... haha! Yeah brother the basalt is something I used to just leave in the creek, but since cutting it, I just keep fallin in love with it more and more man.
I love how you leave a little of the rock in its natural state - the contrast really highlights the beauty inside. And that moss agate = so incredible. I would love to own a piece like that.
you got yourself a good Lassie there! Just always keep in mind there's thousands and thousands of rocks and you might mess up a few that could have turned out amazing but you'll never get those amazing ones until you break a few learning how to make them beautiful! That one at 9:27 o my gosh it looks like an ash plume coming out of a hole in the Earth!
Mahtaju Strachan Ah thank you man. That’s so true hey. I’ve gotten lucky so far and have gotten good at fixing mistakes hahaha! Man yeah that rock is stunning. It’s only little and a weird shape, but if only you guys could see how insane it is inside. Just like an ash plume. I’m so glad I picked it up. 😉
Lapidary and fossicking are perfect for putting busy life on halt by being in our element. Great video as usual, I can feel your passion through video which says a lot about you as a person and video maker! Keep it up dude! Rock on 🤘🏼
Just wanted to say thanks for the great videos. I just started rockhounding about 2 weeks ago but I really enjoy it. You side of the world is Awesome :) Would love to come the wonders for myself one day :)Happy hunting.
Thank you Larry and welcome to one of the most peaceful and rewarding hobbies I’ve ever come across. It’s good for the soul and the rockhound community is legitimately just full of good people. Always here to help if you have any questions mate and happy hunting my friend!!!!!
Greetings from Texas,USA. I am 79 years old. You have taught me SO much about why I love nature: water, forests, rocks. You introduced me to thunder eggs and how they form differently from geodes. Studying rock formation is a powerful metaphor for the upheavals, heating and cooling, etc. For how our lives evolve--tumbling etc. I pray to God the Creator, Jesus the Son and the Holy Spirit as your young life forms and evolves. You have taken me to rivers and reminded me of all I treasure in this challenging world. You truly are God's treasue and precious to this amazing community that has gathered to share your passion. Endless thanks from Robert in Texas. (PSALM 139)
Dang your so lucky to live where you can hunt and find such beauty! It is 5 AM here and as always I look forward to your vids. Excellent job with the voice-over. You getting better every week. I appreciate your efforts. Havagudun my friend.
E. D. Law Yeah we are super lucky to live where we do. I never knew this stuff was out here for so many years. Little treasures 😉 Thanks for all the support EDL, I really genuinely appreciate it. Have a great weekend my friend. 😊
Your video is great..I'm just getting into rocks and crystal s myself .. I dont go hunt them , i live my fun of loving them through you all that do the work of finding these great gems... You made them all so beautiful in the cuting and polishing and leaving some the natural covers on them .. Thank you for sharing ..maybe one day I'll get out to find some here in Ohio.....💛💎🥰✌
Cindy Rhodes Oh that’s so cool Cindy! You will be hooked at going out and finding them, it’s such a peaceful yet exciting adventure/treasure hunt. I’m sure there will be something pretty out there in Ohio. You’re gonna love it I promise!
Dont be anxious bro. Theres no right or wrong way. They are just rocks. Pleanty more out there. Everyone is their own worst critic. What you might think is sub par someone else will find amazing. You do great work finding, cutting, polishing, and filming rocks. Dont ever second guess yourself.
Another great vid mate! 👍 found some interesting stuff this week. It's been great the last couple months. Have been dealing with some issues and coming across your videos has helped me to occupy my time. I get excited when I known I have time to go out and prospect and just enjoy my time out in nature. Thanks heaps for your help with the answers to my questions in recent videos and pointing me in the right direction. Appreciate the hard work you put in to make these videos. Have a good week mate, can't wait till the next one 😊👍✌
Jamie Penman It is honestly a pleasure Jamie, and knowing they help you to occupy your time just makes it even more worth every part of it. I love doing it so so much, but that just makes me even happier. I hope what ever it is you’re dealing with subsides and eases for you my friend 🙏
Jamie Penman Thanks mate, careful though I’m planning on doing this till I’m physically not able haha! Many many years yet 😉 Seriously though, mega thanks hey!
Love the videos that go from rough to finished.I have 2 kilos agates from agate creek coming to me in NZ.Don't know what I'll with them till they arrive and I'm sure I'll go through the same anxiety that you went through knowing once you cut them you can't go back but you've shown some of the hints on the outside to look for. Thanks
@@Rookie_Rockounding They have arrived. I used your citric acid idea to clean them and already some of them are showing amazing red ,blue and orange colours. Put about 6 into a tumble I had going at the 400 grit stage to see what happens.
I really wish I could afford to fly you and your family here to the states. I have places I could take you all over the central and western states to find stones you have never seen or imagined. Just the petrified wood and fossils here in Nebraska would blow you away.
I smiled throughout the entire video Jessie , thank you for making my Friday morning such a good one . Best regards from Lloyd way over here in Ontario Canada.
Awesome job, My tile saw arrives tomorrow! My wife wondered why I'm so excited. I showed her how excited you were in your first first tile saw video. Now she knows. Keep up the great work, really enjoy your it.
Oh gosh I’m excited for you!!!!!! Man that’s awesome! So so cool! You’re going to love it so much. If you ever have any questions don’t hesitate to ask mate. Have funnnnnn!
I am a little late to this party, but just let me say how much I love your videos. I have learned so much about using the tile saw and the grinder pads. These videos have really inspired me two find of love of rocks in the beauty that can be unearthed. Thank you for sharing your love, your techniques, and even your anxieties. Terrific work. Keep it up.
Thank you for the kind words mate, it really makes me happy to know the videos are helping people get even more into rocks!!! Take care brother and happy rock times 😉👍
So this video almost didn’t come out tonight. I had so many little things go wrong while filming and editing it, but I hope you enjoy it. It was a challenge but a good one. Thank you to those who helped me out. You know who you are.
I’ll get to replying to any and all comments this week, and just wish you all a great couple weeks ahead.
Until the next one, happy hounding, and much love from down under.
Tonight... it's 6:12am!
Coffee time.
Thanks for making my morning better.
Go wrong!? No you did an awesome job with the video. Don't let what you enjoy doing turn into something that stresses you out, if that happens it is no longer fun.
Thanks for all the hard work on the videos Man it really makes them fun to watch!
Awesome video babe, nothimg wrong with it! Have faith in your abilities!

Man, thank you Zeke, that really means a lot mate. I’m really glad you found it helpful.
Wow what qualities of cutting stones and you're master in polish.

kiersten gallagher
Ah see! That is exactly why I left it in the video, it’s always a little bit easier to deal with knowing you’re not the only one. I’ve had it since a child. It’s good sometimes and others it’s horrible. But it always passes. That’s what you gotta remember, it will pass. Thank you for sharing Kiersten 😊
Great video! Because of your videos, and the detailed discriptions you give, my rock hounding trips are much more fun, interesting, and informed. Please keep the videos coming of those amazing finds!
Wow. Those were absolutely beautiful. You did a wonderful job of cutting and polishing. There is art in each piece, and you have great vision in bringing it out. Keep up the great work. Enjoy the videos and look forward to the next. Have a great week. Davin

Thank you Karina, yeah it can be daunting sometimes, I always want to deliver my best, but the challenge sometimes is as precious as the sense of achievement I get when I’m able to pop these videos up for you guys. I get so much enjoyment out of the whole process. I just love it 😉👍
Absolutely beautiful.. especially that moss agate at the end! Thank you so much for doing this.. 👍👍😊
It’s been really fun to watch you progress in your hobby, love the channel
Grassguy 420
Thank you brother! You’ve been here for ages 👊
You have a great eye for shaping and polishing the rocks to highlight the unique features. just beautiful
Ah, I felt for you when you were talking about the anxiety you felt. Don't go there! Rockhounding isn't about success or failure - it's about the journey. Just relax and enjoy the process - the good, the bad and the ugly. Anybody who's ever been there will understand.
Thank you Katy. Yeah anxiety has been a beast I’ve had to make friends with since a kid, don’t know why it crept up on me that day but working with those beauties certainly did the trick to ease the nerves 😉
Thank you again for your kind message 🙏
I always look forward to seeing your videos! They are great and I absolutely love your rocks! Keep up the great work! God bless you
Thank you mate! 😊
Great video! Always enjoy them and learn so much! Thanks for all your efforts in putting your videos out!
Everything turned out awesome, hopefully you find more stunners soon enough, have an amazing week
Sir Notre Dame
Thanks mate, looking to explore some more next week with the boys. Nothing better I reckon. Have a brilliant week ahead mate 👍
Rookie Rockhounding hope all is well and you come out of it all with some nice pieces to keep you occupied
Wow... love what you’re doing here
Leaving some rough and a beautiful smooth polish... really shows off the beauty of these rocks
That moss agate with the blue... stunning!
Thank you Laura! 😊
Once again you do an amazing job with your videos and the rocks are just beautiful. Thank you so much until the next cool vid. Cheers.
Karen Sparozvich
Thank you Karen, I just love doing it so much. Until the next time have a brilliant couple weeks 😊
Really great! I love these videos while I'm sitting in my human cube at work.
G. Elliott Nielsen
Haha! That’s so cool! Hope it helps pass the time G!
Always enjoy your videos. Thanks
Mlani Thurston
Thank you Mlani ☺️
Love the new video Frookie. The editing and voice over were spot on. That basalt with all the little inclusions/bubbles is so gorgeous, and the nodule at the end with dendrite 💋.The rocks you collected polished up beautifully. We always love a new video from you, but listen to your wife, she is a very smart cookie. We love watching you more because of your passion and excitement for what you are doing. If it’s not fun, you are working too hard. Please don’t work too hard.
betojdesigns
Ohhh thank you guys. Honestly, I love this more than I can say, and although there are times where I’m challenged, the sense of achievement and community that comes from the whole process is so precious to me. Thank you honestly for your kind words. 😊
I’m enjoying it more and more each day with each rock and each new good person I get to meet.
May you guys have a brilliant week ahead my friend.
Hola, I watch you from TIJUANA B.C. MEXICO, love your videos. Your rocks came out so beautiful they look like they have the universe inside of them.
dora fajardo
Hey! Dora in T.J! I’m not sure if that’s what you call it but my brother used to live in Southern California and would always refer to Tijuana as tj. 😊
Hola from Australia!!!
I really love how you leave a part untouched when you’re polishing, it’s like a window into its life before it came into your hands!
Thank you for being so real in your videos, your reflections and pondering always bring such wisdom, thank you for being vulnerable!
My family and I love your videos, almost every day ends with us watching your videos while I sit with a glass of wine and a handful of rocks!
My toddlers even pretend to be you when we are out and about and they have become quite good at finding carnelian!
Oh my goodness what a beautiful message. Thank you Christina “a glass of wine and a handful of rocks”. Love it! 😊
You always find such wonderful pieces and make them even more beautiful when you cut n polish them!!! Covered your videos
I Love this videos... rocks are very beautifull... congra👍🙏👏👏👏💎
You do an amazing job with your treasures. I agree with you... I really like the way you leave a rough part. The contrast of rough and polished is eye catching. A good reminder to not judge by appearances in any aspect of life. Even the ugliest of rocks has some hidden beauty for those who take time to look deeper. Appreciation for the small gems too.
Justine Forlong
Spot on Justine, spot on. ☺️👍🙏
Those formations on that last agate are what many normally refer to as "dendrites." So I would classify that as a dendritic agate. Now which mineral the dendrites are made of is hard to say by the image alone, but it is a stunner! So glad you were able to rescue that one!
Denis Weimer
Thank you Denise! That’s super helpful! 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
Always excited to see the videos each week. 🥽🔎⚒Thanks Jessie for all your hard work and dedication to this channel, we love following your journey. ✌💕🧘♀️
Oh thank you Crystal, that genuinely means so much, 😊👍
You are an artist in every aspect. Your senses are dialed in to your hobby, when and where to go, who goes along and what path to take, what to pick up or keep,...etc. You are one with your element! An absolute brilliant piece of work, this video. So calming, so ethereal. A combination of your voice, which is very soothing, the artistic angst which draws in the viewer and the final result, or money shot of the absolute gems upon completion. We love you and we love who you are and what you do. Namaste😊 ...Theo from southern California.
Theo θEΩ
Dude I’m not gonna lie, I got chills reading that. Thank you man, genuinely massively, just thank you. You and yours have a beautiful week ahead mate! Namaste 🙏
I love the first....dark brown with clear ovals, etc...The way you cut and polished that was wonderful. I wouldn't recognize its potential just seeing it rough.
Yeah they’re a beautiful stone to work with. One of my favourites. 😊
I super love u doing it too! that moss agate is stunning, but ur favourite is mine too as soon as i saw it before u cut and polished it took my breath away!! Nothing stunning here in England , just little bits found on the beach, how i wish i lived where u do ! 😊
Chris Clover
😊 thank you Chris 😊
Yeah that one is just full of amazing ness. I wish I could take you all out with us. We are spoilt so much. Have a great week ahead Chris. Thank you again 👍
I call beautiful stones, gems and minerals, "Earth's Treasures" and they leave me breathless. Thank you for sharing, I was drooling.
It’s always a pleasure Kari 👍
I seriously enjoy watching you. Your humility is endearing! Also, I LOVE the way you show contrast of rough to polish on the stones. I agree you should see the the rock as it is and can be.
Jane King
Thank you Jean 😊🙏
Love the amygdules in the basalt and the plume agate!
Thank you. The rocks are so beautiful. I had a thought while watching this. This"hobby" is so much more. It's a primal connection to our earth and our relationship to nature in its infinate glory. Enjoy your art as the wonder it is.✌️
Wildflower 1954
You’re absolutely right wildflower, that’s a great way to put it. The connection is precious too. 😊
Nice chill video with that music, thanks.
Mikael Johannesen
Ah thanks mate. I always hope the music doesn’t take away from the video. Cheers!
Such awesome specimens! Great job and remember this is only for you and your fun we all get to see it as a bonus! The tunnel bubble rock is soooooooooooo fun!
Petersen
Thank you Petersen!!! Just thank you!
Ha! Yeah the tunnel bubble rock is soooo damn cool 😉👌
Have a great week ahead my friend!
♥️♥️
Great video! Watching anyone go through your anxiety is rough, but I'm glad that in the end you polished those away. Mahalo for what you do🤙
Hu Keas
Yeah thank you Hu Keas, I get it often since I was a kid, so I’ve made friends with it, but sometimes I have to prove it wrong. I felt it was important to show that it’s common and okay to talk about. If that makes sense 😊
Thank you!!!
Listen to your lovely wife Jessie..Enjoy your hobbie mate..It doesn't matter what video content you include because you have a genuine passion for all things of a rocky nature, and that passion is what I, and I'm sure others wait to see each fortnight, so go at it mate..We will be waiting patiently for more, especially if we get our senses filled with specimens like those mate..Stunning plain and simple..
Wayneo's World
Thank you wayneo mate. I learnt a lot from doing this one, mainly, that I just need to chill haha! But I genuinely love the challenge as well. It’s so rewarding and sharing it with you guys just double or even triples my enjoyment.
I hope you have a great couple of weeks until next time bud! 😉👍
Love what U do with the rocks and love watching your videos. Keep up the good work. Looking forward to the next 🙂
Shelley Power
Thank you Shelley, looking forward to see how it turns out too. Two weeks feels like ages haha! Until then, take care friend. 😉
beautiful! so many treasures to find within the stones. have a great day & thanks for the vid.
Crystaline Dreams
Thank you CD! Have a brilliant week ahead my friend 😊✨
As someone with anxiety who is also just learning how to sand and polish Oregon Agates, this is such a helpful video. You're doing great and I deeply appreciate you showing your process. You're awesome. 💖 Don't give up!
Nice rocks👍 I find superior agates in my neck of the woods, some very beautiful.
Oh wow Superior! They’re beautiful 👌
The stones were all super cool! I still can't get past the "you gotta cut them" using dangerful power saws. :)
The diamond saws don't cut hands because they grind the rocks not cut.
@@johnriceman3235 really! Thanks, that is good to know :)
stinkygraykitty
Haha, yeah these blades won’t cut you, they’re called continuous which means they don’t have teeth so to speak. They can cut your fingernail though. 😁
@@Rookie_Rockounding OMG still sort of scary....but hey I am my father's daughter...Mr Power Tool :) I guess if there was a mishap I could blame Mr Stinky ;)
I’m familiar with anxiety with how to and where to make my cuts. I'm glad your wife (Karie)? gave your confidence to carry on. I will remember that for my projects. I really don't want to be disappointed with a rock that I really love but need to see the center. I will go on so I make magic with a polishing pad. Carry on and thank you for your continued support with your videos. God Bless.
Diana Jusselin
Thank you Diana, yeah she’s (Carly I mumble when I speak haha) she’s a smart cookie.
But it’s so very true. Sometimes it takes stepping away, to bring the right mind frame to carry on. Anxiety is something I’ve had since childhood, it can be hard, but it makes us enjoy the time we don’t have it even more. 😊🙏
You did a awesome job!
Sometimes you just have too make your self happy. And I hope you take care of that sweet little woman you have, y'all are 2 beautiful people. I do lapidary it makes me happy, I love taking a ugly rock and making it beautiful.
That's why I've said...... I have never seen a ugly rock. 😉😊
Just keep on keeping on, we all love seeing you happy. You da man! I hope you have a great weekend mate. Cheers!
#1 Catfishunter Miller
Oh man thank you mate! Honestly. You’re right, I remember you first saying that, there’s no such thing as an ugly rock. So so true!
Thank you again, you honestly rock!!! Have an awesome week ahead my friend. 👍
Happy Friday RR, thanks for sharing the goods with us nerdy rockhounding tubers.👀 Glad you were finally able to relax, sure hope you know that all of us here have ZERO expectations of you and are just super grateful that you take the time to film, edit and share your experiences and adventures with the rest of us! 👍 IMO The hobby is for your satisfaction my friend, if the filming, editing and conceiving of content and such takes away from that experience, then I would recommend re-focusing on why you rockhound in the first place! I doubt there are many expectations so please just enjoy the experiences and the rest will fall into place~ I totally appreciate how stressful editing clips and piecing it together in some kind of cohesive fashion can be and personally, I think that you do an above average job sir of cobbling together interesting content for us to enjoy~ 😁 Just love the variety of materials you find and expose the hearts of, multiple colors and mixes of minerals makes for fun and interesting finds. Not sure if your anxiety was about making cuts that bring out the best in the rock or if it was about the quality of the material afterwords or if that was just about taking good video? Regardless, I hope you know that we all come here. not because you find the best materials or create the best cabs or freeforms etc but because you are a really good person with a great personality who has a wonderful passion for a very cool hobby and you have 100% of my support! Ok so the rock at 7:28 with the common opal is magnificent like caramel candy. Very much enjoyed hearing your thoughts on each stone and your intentions when cutting and polishing, I do that when I pick em up, try to consider what I'd do with it before I put it in the bag, if I don't see it I leave it~ PS.. Those look similar to dendrites, moss growths like plants inside the chalcedony~ Video was great, even if you didn't think so, thanks again have a great weekend my friend~
Backcountry with Shaughn
Heyyyy Shaughn! Man thank you dude. No I just have always had anxiety since a kid. Sometimes it’s a beast though, but mostly, it’s just from overthinking haha. I got a busy brain. I’ve learnt to make friends with it though, and I think I was just overthinking everything. I really appreciate your help man.
And ultimately, overcoming it, gives such a greater sense of achievement knowing that it was all for nought, the anxiety I mean Haha!
Man those agates were a surprising even to me, just so grateful I get to relax and collect them, and also work with them. Just so lucky and I love sharing the whole thing with you mate. I hope your week is a brilliant one brother 👊🍻
This video made my day. I'm definitely buying a rock saw now
Kaitlyn Francis
You will absolutely love it! It’s a whole new would in there 😉👍
They turned out just beautifully. Can hardly wait for your next adventure.
Darlene Bromberger
Thank you Darlene! 😊
Chill! You are doing just fine.
Jeff Trag
Thanks mate, 🍻
You are so inspiring!! Thank you!! What gorgeous finds - and you brought out their beauty exquisitely :)
Southern Ontario Sasquatch
Oh thank you SOS!!! 😊
That last stone turned out gorgeous. Next time you feel anxious about cutting your stones, just gather them up and go sit under a tree for a bit. Have a conversation with them, out loud or in your noggin, and see what they have to tell you. I have to do that with the things I plant sometimes because they may not like where I put them and don't do so well, so I just sit and look at them until I can "see" where they are really going to be happy. Then I move them to that place. It sounds weird but it works for me. I like all your productions. Your best girl is right...enjoy your hobbies. They are what keeps us sane...for the most part! 😊
Roxanna Weaver
Oh man roxanna that’s seriously such a great idea. I’m actually going to do that. I know what you mean about plants, they tell us so much about what they want. Nature is just amazing.
Haha! I love that “it keeps us sain... for the most part”🤣👌
Absolutely beautiful!❤️
Yvonne Sebastian
Thank you Yvonne 😊👍
Great job! Beautiful rocks!
Sue Erickson
Thank you Sue! 🙏😊
I am absolutely addicted to your channel.
You have an eye for beauty both in natural state and when cutting.
Hey Jfed! Thank you, I’m super glad you enjoy the videos. Thanking youuuu 😊😊😊
Wow! Amazing!!
Damn, that first one you polished almost looked like a filled in scoria! Beautifully polished!
Another great video man! It takes about 4 seconds to forget you're voicing over. You got that dialed in.
Cheers!
Ah man thanks dude, I owe it to you with the support you’ve given me as a mate when I’ve been at some hectic points. That storm happened last night and I actually didn’t have time to script anything so all the voice overs were off the cuff... 😣
It was intense to film at the last minute and then realise that it was all washed out by the wind. Haha! Hectic brother. Just hectic 🤣
Hope you have a solid day at work man. I’ll talk soon brother. 🐨🐺
Everyone makes mistakes, dont you worry about it when making video's. No one will judge you, we love you and your content. Keep em comming ❤
Praise Father In Heaven
Thank you honestly 😊✨
You just keep reminding me why I need to get a polishing wheel. I need to get my hands on some of that basalt with all the little inclusions of chalcedony in it! it's too amazing!
Mahtaju Strachan
Oh man polishing is so damn fun man! You gotta do it. I hope to have a set of wheels one day. One day... haha!
Yeah brother the basalt is something I used to just leave in the creek, but since cutting it, I just keep fallin in love with it more and more man.
@@Rookie_Rockounding consider selling one!?!? :D it would be a glass shelf piece XD
Great video 👍👍 dont be to hard on yourself. Youve come a long way.
the first one you did was amazing. the shape is perfect - polished and raw! more like that needs to be done, please
I love how you leave a little of the rock in its natural state - the contrast really highlights the beauty inside. And that moss agate = so incredible. I would love to own a piece like that.
Stand Up
Thank you Stand Up. It’s cool to be reminded of how they looked outside while witnessing the pretty stuff inside. 😉
you got yourself a good Lassie there! Just always keep in mind there's thousands and thousands of rocks and you might mess up a few that could have turned out amazing but you'll never get those amazing ones until you break a few learning how to make them beautiful! That one at 9:27 o my gosh it looks like an ash plume coming out of a hole in the Earth!
I was thinking the same thing!😄
Mahtaju Strachan
Ah thank you man. That’s so true hey. I’ve gotten lucky so far and have gotten good at fixing mistakes hahaha!
Man yeah that rock is stunning. It’s only little and a weird shape, but if only you guys could see how insane it is inside. Just like an ash plume. I’m so glad I picked it up. 😉
Beautifully shaped and realized stones. Thanks for sharing your work, your moods, and, especially, your passion.
Thank you my friend, it is always a pleasure to share the fun of playing with these beauties 😉
Beautiful. I can't even say which is my favorite. TFS 💖🦅 🦅
icatz
Ah that’s cool! It’s hard to pick isn’t it haha. Thank you icatz 👍
Lapidary and fossicking are perfect for putting busy life on halt by being in our element. Great video as usual, I can feel your passion through video which says a lot about you as a person and video maker! Keep it up dude! Rock on 🤘🏼
Jack's Gems
Thank you so much Jack! It’s the greatest way to relax really the polishing is almost Meditative 😉
awesome brother
Just wanted to say thanks for the great videos. I just started rockhounding about 2 weeks ago but I really enjoy it. You side of the world is Awesome :) Would love to come the wonders for myself one day :)Happy hunting.
Thank you Larry and welcome to one of the most peaceful and rewarding hobbies I’ve ever come across. It’s good for the soul and the rockhound community is legitimately just full of good people.
Always here to help if you have any questions mate and happy hunting my friend!!!!!
Greetings from Texas,USA. I am 79 years old. You have taught me SO much about why I love nature: water, forests, rocks. You introduced me to thunder eggs and how they form differently from geodes. Studying rock formation is a powerful metaphor for the upheavals, heating and cooling, etc. For how our lives evolve--tumbling etc. I pray to God the Creator, Jesus the Son and the Holy Spirit as your young life forms and evolves. You have taken me to rivers and reminded me of all I treasure in this challenging world. You truly are God's treasue and precious to this amazing community that has gathered to share your passion. Endless thanks from Robert in Texas. (PSALM 139)
You did such a beautiful job. I just love it
Nathalie Blackwell
Thank you Nathalie 😊
Dang your so lucky to live where you can hunt and find such beauty! It is 5 AM here and as always I look forward to your vids. Excellent job with the voice-over. You getting better every week. I appreciate your efforts. Havagudun my friend.
E. D. Law
Yeah we are super lucky to live where we do. I never knew this stuff was out here for so many years. Little treasures 😉
Thanks for all the support EDL, I really genuinely appreciate it. Have a great weekend my friend. 😊
Beautiful!
Your video is great..I'm just getting into rocks and crystal s myself ..
I dont go hunt them , i live my fun of loving them through you all that do the work of finding these great gems...
You made them all so beautiful in the cuting and polishing and leaving some the natural covers on them ..
Thank you for sharing ..maybe one day I'll get out to find some here in Ohio.....💛💎🥰✌
Cindy Rhodes
Oh that’s so cool Cindy! You will be hooked at going out and finding them, it’s such a peaceful yet exciting adventure/treasure hunt. I’m sure there will be something pretty out there in Ohio. You’re gonna love it I promise!
LOVELY! Thank you.
Myrtha Gunter
It is honestly a pleasure 😊
The basalt is gorgeous! And I'm not sure if anyone has already said this but those crystals you mentioned are (almost certainly) feldspar phenocrysts!
ashleyrose
Oh woah! Feldspar phenocrysts! Thank you!!!
Love your videos keep really inspired me love my new found hobby
JuneClark Dagohoy
Heyyyy that’s so cool! Thank you June, it’s such a great hobby. That makes me so happy 😊
Dont be anxious bro. Theres no right or wrong way. They are just rocks. Pleanty more out there. Everyone is their own worst critic. What you might think is sub par someone else will find amazing. You do great work finding, cutting, polishing, and filming rocks. Dont ever second guess yourself.
Drew Wood
Just genuinely, thank you Drew. Thank you thank you 🙏
wonderful stones! you must know that I am envying you so much!
Cesare Alessandrini
Thank you! That makes my day 😊
Another great vid mate! 👍 found some interesting stuff this week. It's been great the last couple months. Have been dealing with some issues and coming across your videos has helped me to occupy my time. I get excited when I known I have time to go out and prospect and just enjoy my time out in nature. Thanks heaps for your help with the answers to my questions in recent videos and pointing me in the right direction. Appreciate the hard work you put in to make these videos. Have a good week mate, can't wait till the next one 😊👍✌
Jamie Penman
It is honestly a pleasure Jamie, and knowing they help you to occupy your time just makes it even more worth every part of it. I love doing it so so much, but that just makes me even happier. I hope what ever it is you’re dealing with subsides and eases for you my friend 🙏
@@Rookie_Rockounding thanks mate means a lot. Will support the channel for as long as you are making vids. 👍✌ have a great couple weeks 😃
Jamie Penman
Thanks mate, careful though I’m planning on doing this till I’m physically not able haha! Many many years yet 😉
Seriously though, mega thanks hey!
@@Rookie_Rockounding Haha that's alright mate, a risk worth taking 😊👍
Love the videos that go from rough to finished.I have 2 kilos agates from agate creek coming to me in NZ.Don't know what I'll with them till they arrive and I'm sure I'll go through the same anxiety that you went through knowing once you cut them you can't go back but you've shown some of the hints on the outside to look for. Thanks
Oh man John some of the most beautiful agates Come from agate creek! Their colours are gorgeous!
@@Rookie_Rockounding They have arrived. I used your citric acid idea to clean them and already some of them are showing amazing red ,blue and orange colours. Put about 6 into a tumble I had going at the 400 grit stage to see what happens.
Oh man that’s awesome! So cool mate!
Im watching at work. Im fired!! More time to find stuff!!
No!! Really?
Raw Dawg Pendants
Hahahaha!!!!! No! Dude that’s hilarious! 🤣😂🤣 there’s always a silver lining right 👌👌👌
Big up from France ! Dude your videos are really cool, lets do more videos please :)
Thanks for the link !
Heyyyyyyy! Thank you mate!!!
I really wish I could afford to fly you and your family here to the states. I have places I could take you all over the central and western states to find stones you have never seen or imagined. Just the petrified wood and fossils here in Nebraska would blow you away.
Do it! (start a Go Fund Me account)
kagitaka tokahe
Oh man I would love to make it over there one day!!!!! 😊
The stones turned out beautifully! You did a nice job on the polish like bow the basalt was still on it too.
SareJen
Thank you Sare 😊 some are just so fun to look into 😉
Oh you did a beautiful job with the moss agates. They look amazing!
I smiled throughout the entire video Jessie , thank you for making my Friday morning such a good one . Best regards from Lloyd way over here in Ontario Canada.
highenergyog
Thank you Lloyd, best regards to you mate, hope your week ahead is a brilliant one brother. 👊
The cut and polish you did on the first black stone you showed. the salt one. is wonderful!
Awesome job, My tile saw arrives tomorrow! My wife wondered why I'm so excited. I showed her how excited you were in your first first tile saw video. Now she knows. Keep up the great work, really enjoy your it.
Oh gosh I’m excited for you!!!!!! Man that’s awesome! So so cool! You’re going to love it so much. If you ever have any questions don’t hesitate to ask mate. Have funnnnnn!
I am a little late to this party, but just let me say how much I love your videos. I have learned so much about using the tile saw and the grinder pads. These videos have really inspired me two find of love of rocks in the beauty that can be unearthed. Thank you for sharing your love, your techniques, and even your anxieties. Terrific work. Keep it up.
Thank you for the kind words mate, it really makes me happy to know the videos are helping people get even more into rocks!!! Take care brother and happy rock times 😉👍
Very nice! Thanks!
