Amazing 👍👍
Hello from Florida! I am new to rockhounding. But all my life i love crystals. May I ask what you do with those after cutting?
Loved this. Link to your wet saw set up?
I need to look up the "How to set up the wet saw". I love watching your channel
Wow so gorgeous!
You know it's a fun day when you hear the sounds of the saw start up and the sight of water spraying, love that. These are so beautiful, thanks for taking the time to share it with us.
I like 👍
Ohhhh yeahhh!! 🤘🤘 happy to share it, it was such a fun time!
Geeet outa herreeeeee!!!
Thank you. Only began view yesterday-now I'm hooked...
I’m glad you’re enjoying 🥰
I love the bands beautiful
Hello hello! again my idol! I'm so inspired to collect more gemstone or any rock together my friends i really injoy😄😄😄
It’s always so much fun cutting open nodules! They’re my favorite thing to cut with my tile saw😂
Oh 100% - I’m going to go through my nodules and cut a bunch now lol
Hi, I could watch this all day long!!! I love the little surprises you give us when you open the halves!!! Everything was gorgeous!!! Thanks for sharing!!! Take care!!!
I liked the one that was red on one side and not on the other. It's amazing they were separated by a saw blades width. Just think you were the first one to see that in millions of years. Neat. Be happy, safe and stay healthy 😷⚒
Red 👍
Wow those little nodules were delightfully surprising. Spectacular banding! Your "cutting agates videos" are the best in my opinion. Feels like Christmas morning. Thank you for sharing it with people you don't even know. That's very nice of you Agate Dad! :)
❤️❤️❤️
That was a slick intro and some gorgeous rocks
Thanks for sharing!
Amazing video!!
I feel happier every time after cutting even it's not mine
Thanks for sharing your knowledge! Watching from Tasmania ❤️
Amazing bro 👍
There was definitely some amazing surprises in this video and some kinda disappointments but you gotta be like Columbus & take a chance.....they are quite lovely & I appreciate you taking us along on this adventure.....your friend will not be disappointed. Stay well, & safe and give that little guy a squeeze.
Which little guy?!
@@AgateDad ....that sweet little lad you take along occasionally or all of them......lol
So great to see. So much to learn. Thank you for sharing.
Amazing! Thank you for sharing!
I loved seeing what is on the inside! Awesome video for sure ❤️💯😁 not to mention you have nice hands/finger nails lol 🤷😁❤️
Thanks!
I NEED TO FIND THESE !
I would be so reluctant in handing those back, they were so beautiful 👍💕💕💕
Hahah I know right
So nice to see the inside of such amazing gems
👍👍 amazing
It like openning presents. A gift inside everything.
Exactly!!
You’ve totally raised my appreciation of agates 👍🏼 I used to just leave em!
That’s almost unbelievable hahah
Those cuttings show incredible interiors. I need some
Thank you
👍👍💪
Muy hermosas la berdad
OMG 👍👍👍👍
Been a sub for a long time . You gave me the passion to buy a tile saw works great I cut every rock I find just to see what's inside you never know ! Anyone that wants a start 90 dollars will buy you a saw then 60 dollars I bought an orbital sander at harbor freight . Does not take a lot of $ to start a passion . HAPPY ROCK HOUNDING and may you all be Blessed in life ✌
so cool how ya never can tell, enjoyed the vid Taylor 👊
Thanks sir!
Holy cow! 😯 at 3:57 I nearly fainted when you opened that! Great luck on drawing the line, you can see the remaining orange patch under your right thumb.
I have just started watching your videos. Love them so beautiful when you cut the rocks.
Thanks 🙏
Great video Taylor!! That is really how cutting agates goes, some duds some maybes some good ones, and a few really nice ones.😎
Very true! Every batch needs its thumpers
I could watch these videos all day long. ❤️
Thanks bud!
That was fun! Thank-you!
Fell into my recommends after I was trying to find out out about what I thought may be meteorite rock...wow I get rocks now!!!
Awsome xxx
Hi again TAYLOR
Almost missed this fun and exciting vid.
Wow surprises inside most of the nodules. How
beautiful! Your brave to cut the amethyst. Thinking
you like amethyst as much as I do!
Super nice you cut those for your friend. One thing learned for sure is it will be a no brainer to cut any nodules you have or find. Truly worth it...
Thx as always. Hope to find you earlier next time.
Thanks for watching! I agree, gotta just cut the nodules, I’ll be going through my collection and rounding them all up!
Very exciting to watch!
Mantap
Fools Gold, Fools Agate!!
I'm from Indonesia, happy to see the rocks you show, success is always for you
Thanks!
Thanks Mike!
Oh my!!😯 Now I need a saw🤘.. That is crazy!! I have lots of farm field nodules that need cutting ASAP🤓
Do it!! I need to round up my nodules now too
Those are some awesome stones❣️☺️
Thanks! Always love the cutting videos :)
Awesome! I really enjoy your videos! Thanks soooo much for sharing with us! 🤗
Когда режешь камень сильно давишь в конце, поэтому крошится.Последние пять мм не дам и принимай пальцем по линии реза , тогда крошится будет меньше.Удачи коллега!
Wow! I thought the one at 2:00 was SO beautiful, but then the one at 3:15... Holy cow! They were all beautiful in their own right. The first one and 3rd were kind of opposites of each other- the first had red around the outside, and the third had the red INside! My favorite (and smallest 😢) ones I’ve found are the red ones. That color catches my eye when I’m hunting.😊 Thanks for the video and sharing, Taylor!😁
Thanks for joining us!!
I love what you are doing. This last year my love for rock hounding was reinvigorated. Heading to the Badlands for Fairburn’s this weekend. Keep on rockin brother
Best of luck! I heard they’re hard to find, glad the passion has come back 🤘🤘
This was a blast to watch! Keep up the great content! 😁✌
My favorite one is the very first nodule. I like that the inside looks like a candle flame!
It sure did!
I cant believe im just finding you now. ❤
☺️🙌
Im now even more curious as to whats inside my rocks.
Everything was beautiful. I would’ve cut the ones not marked exactly the same. Great 🎥! Love watching the cutting. It’s as fun as when I’m cutting my own. The thrill of finding out what you have is inexplainable, unless you do it yourself 🥰🥰
Thanks for the 🥰
Stay Crystal 💫
Omg I love this ! I live in michigan - new sub !!!!
Thanks for joining! Welcome!
gotta say, 3:57 was my favourite. sooo many bands and hitting that boundary between orange/no orange. what luck! i’d say your friend owes you some gps coordinates for that lol!
Haha!! I couldn’t believe that one
Yay! Agate Dad Friday!
🤘🤘
🤘🤘
Very nice cuts!
Nice!
Hi there! I enjoy cutting agate nodules too. Have you ever tumbled the smaller nodule halves instead of polishing their cut sides on a flat lap? I enjoy your videos! Thank you!
Lots of nice cuts.
Absolutely!
Jos mantap
Found a few what I think were good ones on five mile
12:35 ish looks like the northern lights or a comet.
Nice cutting video....I like the same ones you like 👍😏
There is aggregates amazing that almost like 3D is the one you had with the banding and courts look like a doorway and the other one look like it had a mountain range the the one that you must look like a 3-D picture is amazing🤩😮
Man,it is like Christmas opening these!You might want to look up skip an atom agates.I don't know if any of these qualify,but they are interesting!
5:02 lacy egg agate
Bulldog family here too. West side. I’m excited to go to holland this year when they dredge the train from muskeegon. Lots of stuff will resurface. Right? ❤️❤️
ما شاء الله
AD how do you always cut these perfectly, and the orange is seperated, like alot of others you cut:)
I love your ho-ho-ho laugh so much 👑❤️🌳🌺🥀
😂 thanks 🙏
At 4:16 is awesome
, wow I need to wait until the end before commenting 😩
, but all those stones cut are beautiful!
Lol all good!
I also have some
The ones that don't have any lines, or only faint lines I call "Ghost Agates". There is a guy in Carlton Co. that studies that particular type of agate because the theory is that that type may better explain exactly how agates were formed. I personally feel guilty EVERYTIME I break a nodule. Good video, thank you.
I feel like nodules are the easiest to cut! Lol
I'm from newberry mich those are genuine
Can you please make a stone, crystal, agate cutting compilation? 😍😍😍🪨🪨🪨
Like a video of cutting a lot of stones?
@@AgateDad Yes please（╹◡╹）♡
Muy lindas muestras, queria saber como las pule para que queden lustradas
خیلی قشنگه
9:07 would of thought that was moss agate mate? My guess is as good as yours🏴🇬🇧
Ok the third o e you cut I believe idk I’m super tired the orange dot one, how do you find ones like those the outside looks like nothing what made you even think it was anything?
Sounds funny but when you know you know, nodules just have a certain look. I’ve found many that I swore were nothing..Cut them, and were absolute beauties!
Também faço coleção,amo as pedras de paixão, não sei o nome delas nem tenho esse material, cá em Portugal não é muito usual fazer coleções,os meus familiares acham k sou louca mas nem ligo.tenho pena de não saber escrever inglês.🤗👍❤️💯
Never cut any just tumble. I’ll fig out what I got in a few months from my most recent trip to the north shore went all the way to High fall’s
Bro your making me want to cut some more rocks might do my first ever video later and the one with the orange center how is that possible to have cut it exactly and leave no trace on one side amazing......
Do it man! And yes… it was pure chance but so happy!
I have a question If lichen eats rock would lichen like the water from rock saws ?
Great stones but cut the DRAMA! just cut it and open the rock OMG
4:45 crazy chance I love it!! Such great prices for tiny cuts! Wow! I need a trim saw soooo bad!! 8:35 I have some chert/jasper mix nodules that look just like that inside and outside from Utah. Like identical. Crazy
I am thinking about getting a water saw as many rocks I find are beautiful on the surface and I always wonder what they look like inside!
One question. Why do you cut them in half why not cut them in slices like bread? Then you would possibly get more beauty from one rock?
Just came upon your channel a few days ago. I'm enjoying, and learning from, what you present. One thing that concerns me, though, is safety in the way you cut rocks, pushing them into the saw with your hands. Could you comment on that, please? Thanks.
It’s a continuous blade that grinds the stones. It’s all good 👌
@@AgateDad Thanks for your reply. So - no risk to your fingers?!
Which 10" blade are you using on that saw?(HiTech red?) it looks bent/warped. I totally get how it happens and Ive bent a few myself but you will get cleaner cuts with a true blade.
It’s weird, I’ve seen that on the footage and I wonder since it’s so thin if my hold wash pushing to one side. I looked at it after and it seemed straight on the arbor 🤷♂️
@@AgateDad Yea it looks like the blade itself is bent. If you run it slow you may be able to see where. No worries... it happens...
You like the cutting of that red blade? I love the red blade on my 6" HiTech.
I want a rock saw so bad!! Here in Oklahoma so have similar states and jaspers! Do you ever find fossis in agates, or jaspers?
I haven’t no
How do you or other people polish the inside of these rocks? They look very cool when they’re wet, but when they dry they’re just dusty looking. I’d like to find out because I have a couple pieces of cut tiger’s eye that aren’t polished.
I have a flat lap
Like the saw. I just polished a bunch of superior agates, jasper, and bunch of other stuff that I'm retarded to. But now on to the jewelry part.
Nice!
@@AgateDad I'm going to try and get out there early next spring for a new batch. Any advice on when would be a good time.
远方的朋友！我对你捡的石头很有兴趣，我也喜欢石头，希望你能直播就好了！
The one looked Like an egg with a yolk.
I have a rock can you help me figure what it is and what to expect to see inside????
I’m not an expert, I’d start with researching what minerals can be found in the area you found it and/or what it looks like.
How
That cut had to be a trillion to 1.
Seriously love when that happens, I’d say for my history with cutting agates it’s more like 1 in 100 times it happens
