    Here in Tasmania, I search for agates on the beach ❤️
    Every one I find is different, it's so hard to get your eye in!
    Small or big, I love them all.
    Most have lost any remnant of host rock,
    You inspire me to RUclips my beautiful island home!
    Thanks for sharing xxx

    I love the beautiful blue base with the subtle banding. I think what I love best, is you left it nestled in it's natural base. Makes the finished side so much more impressive. I am drawn to blue so this really excited me. TY for sharing with us. 😊

    Wow! That agate was gorgeous! And it did look like a shark! lol It was a really unique looking agate, and the kind we dont get here in the states. But that blue color was gorgeous and the light banding it had in it was awesome. The orange spots were beautiful too. Perfectly placed to give the shark an eye, and there was a squiggly spot that gave hum a perfect mouth! Taylor you did an awesome job polishing it and thank you dan for the awesome agate to polish!

    The shark now has an eye and a great smile, like he's laughing along with you. Adorable. Being from BC Canada, I actually see a Pacific Salmon, with the red indicating spawning season. 👍✌️

    I live in Illinois I found a similar shape I thought it was shaped like a fish I’m not sure what it eventually turned out to be I have too many rocks. I know I will come across it again. When I do I will show it to you.

    I LOVE having a non flat polished part of a stone and the rest raw. I think it's not done enough and it makes me want a polishing setup, but I don,t have the money nor space. That's sad because I have buckets full of cut geodes that I can't polish
