    The turtle was my favorite, but when you have the ability to cut a stone and be the first person ever to see the inside, of something that was created millions of years ago, how can they not all be a favorite. You're a very lucky dad. Just keep cutting for all of us who can't. Thanks for all of the wonderful post.

  • @elisedennis7870
    @elisedennis7870 5 месяцев назад

    So you are the expert not me but I have a question, and I bet you have an answer. Why do you prefer not to slab all of your agates. My simple brain feel like you could produce more product for your business if you slabbed them. Are slabs worth less than half agates? I do also love seeing what it looked like on the outside before it’s inner beauty was discovered

  • @TaneKarnes
    @TaneKarnes 5 месяцев назад

    Got excited..new cutting video. 🎉 When you get overloaded with the quartz bombs, shave a bit of back (at angle..to let in light) and a bit of bottom, to sit on desks or window sills. Make great gifts, and people do like quartz..for the energy. 😎

  • @patriciamckean4186

    AD,
    I remember when you got your first saw and polishing wheels.
    You were working outside and trying to figure out the water feed.
    All those searches around the lake.
    I can't remember how many K ,but it wasn't too much and now 152K and growing!!
    You've developed a great style there in the frozen north, and warm weather and lake searches are coming.
    I hope your young family is doing well.
    Cheers,
    Rik Spector
