      Do make sure to round those edges, particularly if you are a hard-rock geologist.

    Very useful.

    Cheers for this. Perhaps you could do a video reviewing the different types/weights of rock hammer and how to chose the right one for the job.

      Actually I have footage for something like that. Maybe next video to cut!

    Great video but almost fell off my chair when you pulled out an angle grinder standing in the middle of nowhere. 😄

      Lithium batteries have changed everything!

    As always, great video! But - since you pulled out the angle grinder, I have a question - I'm more of collector and an amateur geologist and I was thinking of getting an angle grinder to use as a small scale (also cheaper and easier to carry :) diamond saw for chopping off small specimens. If you can share your opinion on that - If it's a good (or bad) idea and some tips - it would be much appreciated.

      You can grind a rough face on a specimen with the right type of wheel on a battery powered angle grinder, but the rotation speed is too high and no water cooling for a diamond saw on rock.
