  • Let's take a bunch of Malawi agate nodules, cut them open to expose beautiful bands and then take the best of the best to our Cabking and polish them!
    I got these Malawi agates from "The Gem Shop". I cut all of these on my 5" and 10" Hi Tech Diamond saw. I polished all of these with the REZ wheels on my Cabking! All of these polished beauties are listed on my Etsy store as well!

    Anyone ever tell you that you sound what I’d imagine a young Santa would sound like? It lightens a bad mood listening to you enjoy what you do.

    Hey A.D.,
    It's quite apparent how much you enjoy your work, and it's wonderful that you share that world with us.
    I'm curious to know how you fell into this lifestyle. Wondering if you'd consider doing a segment that gives us the back story. I for one would be very interested.
    Thanks for the entertainment!

    Those Agat babies had a B E U T I F U L pattern. (almost all) At 12, looked like gold-pieces inside in one end. Even that I am a Jasper-lover, I did LOVE those patterns in the Agatas.

    Many for the tumbler, Agate Dad. The rest are so beautiful! You never can tell until you cut them, can you ? Loving the 3rd from the last and the last one of the 70’s dig and a few of the babies too! I know this is so hard on your hands, you may want to look into a pair of spandex gloves worn for arthritis. These will put just enough pressure on your hands to protect the joints of your hands. I think they have flesh, black or gray colored gloves and you may be able to cut the ends off so that you have some freedom for your fingertips. ❤
