      In the first batch of Australian agates you sliced open, either the 3rd/4th stone when you showed us, the 3 grey wavy bands as I saw the halves, appeared to be 3-D instead of flat surface. All your cuts have created interesting patterns. Do you create freeform stones instead of the standard shapes? Many years ago I used to cut-polish freeform stones and set them into my handcrafted Sterling jewelry.

    ya know, it would be really cool if you put a world map up on the wall and stuck pins in the places you've cut stones from.
    Lol I have a feeling your audience would not only find that super interesting, but also just might inspire some stones getting sent your way just to put a pin in the map!

    Wave Hill agates are among my faves.. some of the most intricate fine banding of any agates, colors can be similar to LSA paint agates. There can be a lot of eyes, like on the husk. I hear larger nodules are likely to have a lot of quartz. Last I heard the location is closed to the public. Thanks for sharing!

    As you speak, I have a chunk of prehnite on my desk that my husband bought me for Mother's Day. It's nice, but nothing like what you just cut. Beautiful! The water level agate that you cut at 10:00 is wonderful! I think you should keep at least one half intact and face polish it for your collection. Don't sell it. That is so pretty! So great to have your video to watch today, really needed to soak in your calm, gentle enthusiasm. Thanks for sharing.

  • @nicolagraynewzealandrockho8976

    I'd just face polish those, so so pretty.
