Thanks!
I did! 😂
The white one was cool but I loved the first one because it looks like a beach scene
Swaziland 🇸🇿
Cousin country of South Africa 🇿🇦
We have amazing stones gems minerals all over our countries
I love the soft and dreamy colours of all these agates.
Beautiful colors...can't wait to see some of your projects. 😊
Those are all very beautiful on the inside. Great video. Wow 👏😮. This video gets ten stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐. Liked. From Jordan.
That first one you cut had a set of eyes on the one in your left hand! Very cool!!! The colors are insanely beautiful!!!
They were all beautiful. I can see jewelry in someone's future. Cut, cut, cut. Keep it coming.
Will do!
They are beautiful very similar to Mozambique agates. Happy hounding.
I would suggest that any time you can see bands in a window, make the longest cut to halve the rock, this way if/when you have an awesome interior, you can still make another cut & cab the center slab
This never gets old. I enjoy all of your videos
I agree, thanks!
4th is my favorite. The colors are so beautiful on all of them
Because of your agatized coral videos I have bought a saw, I live on Lake Huron and crystallized coral is common, we have a different kind of agate though, not as cool as lake superior agates.
Nice, which saw?! I’m sure they’re super beautiful!
Such lovely colours in this batch 💖💙🤍 Thanks again for a fun cutting episode 💙
Thank you! 😊
The pink agate is so pretty!
Definitely the pink bands aer prettiest. Thanks for sharing.
2nd to last almost looks 3D ! Sweet!
Dziękuję💚 Piękne kolory i ciekawe wzory mają te agaty.
The pink, and white makes me think of a finger cut off with the white center as the bone.
I love all of them, I even like cut plain rock, it all has hidden beauty inside
Wow that banded pink, white and lavender agate is beautiful!
Beautiful stones and a jolly laugh, great way to start a new week!
Beautiful little Lovely AGATES ❣️❣️❣️👍👍👍👍👍5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Very pretty agates!
The first one looks like sunset beach beautiful!
It does!
The pinks and blues in these are so pretty! ❤
They are!
These are so pretty!!!I used to think that agates never had cracks in them.Boy,was I wrong!!
They were all so beautiful that it's hard to pick a favorite! Love the colors! Especially the pink! But, I would have to say that water line agate was my favorite! 😊
Your favorite is the one is my favorite. But, all are very pretty.
Good choice!
can you do a short side by side so we can see the difference between swazi and last weeks Botswana ones? the 3rd one, if you could slab it, the light coming thru would be so awesome
you make sweet videos. thank you
I love the pink agate with the grey bands. Beautiful! ❤️❤️😃
Beautiful shades and misty effects. I was rather admiring the apples on your tree too!
😂 so many apples
I love the pink and the one you cut on an angle. It was really unique in pattern.
Such lovely pink and purple colors. That third one had some serious pressure and heat while it was growing. Wow. TFS ❤️🎸🏏
Those are all beautiful 😍
They are!
"What a stinker bean." Hahaha.
My money is on any cut you choose, Agate Dad ! 😊
NICE CUTTING
Thanks 👍
The third one was my favorite!
Very cool!!
são pedras lindas, gosto desse tipo de trabalho, as pedras mostram suas belezas internas
Number three was a favourite
Can't wait to see them polished!
For me it's the last one. Looks like a space nebulous. 😎👍⛏️
Strike that, the 4th was my favorite!
Beautiful agates. I hope mine are as beautiful. Love the channel.
We will see soon!
Very nice my favorite is your second favorite I think it tops all of them good video thank you 👍😁
Thanks boss! Hope cutting is going great!
I have a batch of Sawzi agates going with the ones from Batswana all are so beautiful but both types are so different and unique. I think the Swazi agates are from Mozambique. Goal is to get at least one type of agate from every Country/Continent. One of the Swazi's I have is completely full of water level banding. Can't wait to send them all back to you when they're all polished to show everyone the before and after.
Very cool agates!!! ✌🤠✌
I was born in Swaziland. Now living in Ireland
sweet Swazi's!!
very pretty
If you cut that first one the wrong direction it would have looked like nothing.
This one was kind of interesting, the dud was the stud, and the stud was the dud 😆
Definitely number 3😂
En algunos cortes, en vez a la mitad del ancho, hágala del largo, creo que las vetas se verían más lindas
Yay! ❤❤❤
You're right about that last one: prettiest peace of poop ever.
Eline sağlık kardeşim.Beğeniyle izliyorum
I have many agates
❤Agate😢😅😅
white fuzzy because it is fuzzy
Were those "tumbled" tumbler agates you were drinking from? 😁
Some raw Lake Superior agates on a tumbler I made 😅
@@AgateDad I like it! 😀

Hey agate dad how does your system work for people giving you agates? I have a bunch a wouldn’t mind donating because I don’t have the tools or knowledge yet
Send me an email w/ pictures and what you wNd done ☺️
Those are so incredibly "pretty" - candyfloss colours
In the intro, you show the normal cutting speed. Is that about normal for most rocks? I ask as my slab saw does the same, but your soed-up cutting always make it seem like cutting through butter - FAST! Nice to see my saw takes effort like yours. 😁👍🏻🪨⛏️
Yeah it’s usually a minute or so for agates that size
@@AgateDad Good to know. Thanks!!
First one reminds me of all cars,planes movies, looks like their eyes over a desert. The 3rd looks like Africa. I think I like the last one the most just because it's unique. I decided to have the surgeon open some of mine😢 I cringed. Not knowing what was inside. The doctor walked into the waiting room (living room) and said I don't know what you call this but it has bands. I grab my sawed in half nod and look down to a Lake Superior geo agate 🥲🥲😙😙🤧😁🫠. ❤❤❤😂🎉🎉 my first one! I have lots of others that look like this from the outside but have never cut into. Idk if the membership includes sending pictures or asking questions. I found a really unique unusual looking agate I would like to send you pictures of. I was blessed a few days ago to go along with, to my friends job site just to hang out. Come to find out the owner of the house is a geologist 🎉. His land is right off a huge park and said go ahead and dig, take whatever you want. I could of jumped in the clay mud puddle I was so excited. I ended up finding 5 agates. I sent him a picture of one and he said, that banding and it's orange, is very uncommon to MN. Is there a way I can send you a couple pictures of this agate? He's more of a fossil guy, so am I. You are the agate MAN! I would like your input/insight on this beauty of an agate.
