- Let's cut open and slice some beautiful African gems - Botswana agates! I use my 10" Hi Tech Diamond saw to cut and slab a bunch of these amazing and banded minerals. I had a ton of fun working these stones and cannot wait to get to work on polishing some of the cut nodules as well as those banded Botswana agate slabs!

Love the kiddos sounds in the background. Good Dad cutting for the kiddo. Botswana are nice! Can't wait to see the cabs. Thanks for sharing your passion for rocks.
Wow! BEAUTIFUL! No dudes in that batch! Also, love the way you get your kiddos interested! 😊
Old disabled house bound dusty rusty rockhound here: Beautiful material!!! Love these slabbing videos!
I recommended your videos to my sister who has a 5-yo boy. A cold, cold winter day, tired only parent, and very active 5-yo. He really enjoyed your videos. He is getting into rocks.
I appreciate you watching! If you enjoyed, help support this video by liking, commenting and sharing! ❤
#excited... Im also a gem collector and fossicker but from australia!! Always love your content buddy.. Im legit staying up till midnight just too watch the stream 🤣🤣 thanks for all of what you do!! Love seeing ur content❤
I'm in love with those quartz dominant agates believe it or not! The first one looked like so spacey with the quartz egg and black agate ring around it. Or like a crystal dino egg. Love it! Also loved the bonus cuts. Your son has great taste in rocks. Thanks for sharing dad ❤
The second one you cut for the cabochons is the first one I’ve ever seen that actually looks 3-D. It looks like you can look right into the stone
It does!!!
I love these! The "perfect", but also some of those cab slabs...beautiful!!! Thanks for sharing!
These are probably one of my favorites that I’ve seen you cut so far!!!!🤯🤍🙏🏽❤️
I love this video! Every day, we are reminded of how good you are with agates ... and this video reminds us of how good you are at being a dad! ❤
Being a dad is the best above all in this earthly realm. I have something fun to tell you, shoot me a message if I don’t send one first!
Botswanas rarely fail. I used to buy beads when I made jewelry. So eye-catching. You did a great job on those, Taylor. ❤️🎸🏏
So good!
😍 Botswana agate I can’t get enough of these beauties my favourite is also your favourite it’s absolutely stunning and looks like a moth when put together. Gorgeous bands 😍
Nice cuts. Some of the tumble slabs were stunning.
The one with the beautiful bands would be beautiful earrings ❤😊
That 2nd one was phenomenal!
You are such a good dad for cutting those rocks for your kid a future rock hound there lol and those Botswana are amazing your favorite was my favorite too
I think you should cut some bonus rocks that your kids pick out more often. It’s really cute and we get to see what’s inside just regular rocks from the back yard.
They are all awesome! If I had to choose it would be the agate with the eyes!🤩🤩
Those rocks look so beautiful on the inside. Great video. Great rocks. And great channel. Liked. Thanks for sharing. From Jordan
Dziękuję💚 Każdy z tych kamieni ma w sobie coś wyjątkowego.
All are stunning!!! I really don't think you could go wrong with any of them. Any agate is good in my book!😁
I think so too!
I liked the matched set of butterfly wings 😊. It's nice the kidos are involved. Keep having fun. See y'a next time
Those slabs were all so pretty! And omg that second rock you cut was gorgeous and perfect! I can't wait to see that polished up.
Love Botswanas! Thanks for sharing these beauties
Glad you like them!
Wonderful - mistakes can end up being great too. Thank you for sharing with us.
Beautiful cuts! Those botswanas were amazing! Those perfect nodules were awesome as well as the little slabs to be cabbed at a later time! But those perfect agate nodules were just amazing! Thanks Taylor!
You make it look like cutting this Agates is so fast and easy. I spent hours on it to cut and then polish slabs

I am thinking about ordering the 10" high tech diamond saw. I want to start cutting my favorite lake Michigan rocks from the Milwaukee area
Do it! Let me know if you have questions or need a discount code for accessories!
Hearing the kids in the background was funny 😂
I really like the little slabs and I'm so happy that you're making free form cabs from them. That method makes the most of the rock I think.
(What do you mean, "it's just a bug?" While weeding a flower bed today I got hissed at by a weird green and white striped beetle thing! Thought it was a snake! 😆)
So perfect... I wish to find some nice spots here in South Africa where I can go "rock hunting". Hopefully soon. I'm obsessed, but not experienced.
The tumbled agates just didn’t show their true beauty until you cut them. Then, mind-blowing results.
Have you ever thought of making some of those into beautiful unique buttons? Those would be beautiful on a nice coat or even dress shirt.
My favorite was the second rock you slabbed!
Thank You For Sharing Beautiful Creations.
My pleasure 😊
I've been through 25 pounds of the pre-tumbled Bots...most of them went straight into the tumbler, but some were big enough to cut. Got some spectacular tumbled stones out of the lot, including an almost solid black stone with faint banding and a pink eye in the middle. Thinking about ordering another 25 pounds while they still have them.
You can make a nice silver ring or pendant out of those polished ones with the depth.
I'll be there 😀🧡
So beauriful! ❤❤❤
They were beautiful!👍👍
that last Botswana one looks like there is wood trapped inside it, such a smoky color.
question. are agates found in all 50 states? if so, do you have that kind of collection?
awesome fun you get to have. you rock
It was a lovely episode 🧡 Thanks so much 😊
Maybe that quartz bomb w eyes would be good to try + grind the husk to make a polished / partially polished eye agate?.. not sure how tricky that is. Some of my favorite Botswanas are thin flat nodules w the flat sides polished, especially w eyes 👀
So many Botswana agates 🤣 and they all have beautiful bands😮
Thanks, dad
Cool to watch!
WOW!!!!!!!!!
very cool agats . Beautiful. 💜
Parabéns TAYLOR...Belíssimas pedras
Nice pegmatite! I find loads in CT
Great video Taylor 😎😎
nice agate after cut ❤
WAY COOL....LOVE your content....WATCH YOUR THUMBS....!!!😊
They are good :)
Those flies need to leave those boys alone lol
They’re vicious 🪰
Rockin episode. Cant wait to see whats in the etsy shop
☺️
I might be the only one but it would be kind of fun to see a vid of you just cutting random rocks from your yard!
Although something tells me your kids already make you do that off camera 😂
😂 not a bad idea
Thanks for always very interesting videos! I have a question to you.... on the fractures agates. Is it possible to fix them with Opticon? I know it is used to repair different kind of gemstones...
❤❤❤
Those are my second favorite rocks except for lakers.
Hi Agate Dad. awesome video.
Hey, thanks!
It kills me waiting to see what is inside!!!😅
Yeah, they are beutiful, I have bought some of them
GORGEOUS
You Rock big time!
You do!
Have you done Yangzee river ageta's? I have a few and don't have a saw.
I see you have been using your Hi-Tech saw for a while. Im using a tile saw from Home Depot right now which isnt ideal. Im thinking of going for it and getting a saw from Hi-Tech. I cut a lot of agates from AZ from quarter / dime size up to golf ball and baseball size, is the 8in enough?
very pretty
👏❤️waim colecção love to rock
Where did you get the Botswana agates from? Those are really beautiful.
Online :)
At least i didn't hear limonite staining!!!!
Not a fan?
👍👍👍
What do you charge to cut aggots apart ? I think we have several large ones that need a larger saw than I have.
Send me a message with pictures ☺️
do you have a spotlight. ????
