      Old disabled house bound dusty rusty rockhound here: I got excited like a little kid watching this video! Thank you for sharing with me the joy of cutting agates.

      This was so exciting. Thanks for taking us along for the ride. 👍
      My favourite was the second to last one, it reminds me of the blue mussels we get all along the coast here in Denmark. Don't know if you have those across the pond, but they have a little bit of white nacre on the inside, and beautiful bands of blue radiating out.
      The quarts and the agate bands along with the shape of the stone looked so much like them.

    If I weren’t 83years old with arthritic fingers I’d go out and buy myself one of those lapidary saws and learn to use it. You have certainly inspired me with all your beautiful and exciting agates and other gem stones. Thank you again!

    I'm 66 yrs. Old I've been rockhounding most my life, now I'm retired now and have more time for hounding, I would love to cut some geods open, and I have a few rocks that are crying to be cut open. This saw would make my ROCKS & I HAPPY. Kathy Sullivan 😊

Taylor, as you mentioned in the chat about doing a video on how you decide how to cut these, I second wanting to know about that. I've been wondering and I think you'd be able to share a lot of great insight into making the best choices.

    🎺Toot your own horn, Agate Dad! 🎺 You are excellent in determining the direction of the cut. This is why people send you their agates. If they are anything like me, I’m terrified on how to determine a cut but you my friend, understand the banding and how it runs, so therefore you are the go to guy to cut folks precious finds. 🎺TOOT, TOOT! 🎺☺️

  • @kessnelson3489
    @kessnelson3489 Год назад +1

    First time viewer and now subscriber! I think the best part of your videos is your outstanding and enthusiastic response to every agate you open! It's great and absolutely noticeable that it is heartfelt. I react the same way when I find one of mother nature's beauties. Agates and geodes just leave me in total state of awe. To know that some of these rocks and gems have been on the earth for hundreds and thousands of years...blows my mind!
    I live in Oregon and frequent the rivers of Washington. I take every opportunity I can to do a little hounding.
    Thanks for sharing yours and others finds!
