Thanks for watching! Have a great week!
You too my Friend🙂👍
Greetings from Germany
I just recieved my Ammonite's today, they are beautiful. Way heavier than I expected too. Also, just wanted to thank you for the little extra something, It was also beautiful.
Looking forward to another purchase in the future!!!
I can't decide what I love more, the geodes or your excitement when opening them. I was hollering along with you! Great vid man.
Same
Agate Dad, I hope you are Santa for some deserving charity...OR do voice-overs for films! GREAT JOYFUL LAUGH!
Every video you do cutting geodes reminds me of my dad and how he opened dozens of rocks and clay balls for me because I was convinced they held treasures. What they ultimately held was lovely memories of my dad encouraging my love of rocks. Thanks. 💕
So cool!...opening a very old present from the earth😍! Love it❤️🎁...your laugh is awesome😄
Glad you enjoyed it
Life is like a box of rocks. You never you what you’re gonna get….( until you cut them ). Get video Taylor. Your excitement is addictive. Loving these cutting videos. Thanks for sharing with all of us.
I think the non-geode is a geode. I think you just cutting perfectly between the pockets.
So I really didn't know there were so many stone fanatics, like me! Colleges sell off excess geo specimens for folks who want to learn about different minerals/stones, so I have some of those. One year, for my brother's birthday, I ordered a sack of geodes. He opened it and laughed, "Glad it's not a sack of coal, but WHY would you...?" I led him and our family out to the (concrete!) balcony where I laid out 4 thick towels to wrap the stones completely. One by one he cracked them open with a big hammer, and they were all amazing--not a dud in the bunch!
I watch you carefully using your saw, and you have won my weekly internet AGAINST ALL ODDS--HERO!
I will live vicariously thru all of you confident owners of power tools🎉 I really like all my fingers, and despise the ER.
From what I've heard the saw he uses isn't really capable of cutting your finger like saws meant for wood. Don't quote me on that tho but I'm pretty sure that's correct.
Your excitement makes your show more wonderful!!!
I’m glad, it makes me happy and I’m happy to share it!
Taylor your enthusiasm always makes me smile 😊 thanks for sharing.
I'm so glad!
Those are all so beautiful - What a treasure trove!!! So Fun!
Your excitement is so contagious! The last geod you cut is GORGEOUS! I would definitely keep that one! 😊
Love that first one especially. That beautiful druziness, wow!
My favorite too. 🤍
The last one looks like a snowman ⛄️ they are so pretty. I love the sparkle.
Beautiful! I used to go geode and fossil hunting in dry creeks around Bloomington,In. ( went to IU there) Anyway ,some houses had geode fences. Thanks for bringing back memories!
Taking about differences in the halves of geodes, I bought some geodes in SD and had them sliced open. One of them was solid but had quartz in the lower half. One side looked like a buffalo (appropriate for the area). The other half looked like the “Kilroy was here” character, It was hilarious. Love your videos and especially being able to watch your excitement when you cut these agates open. Everyone should enjoy their work that much. Good Bless👍❤️
The element of surprise is absolutely part of lapidary cutting. Geodes and thundereggs are some of my favorites.
So fun!
Absolutely gorgeous geodes! ❤
I love these! They are very beautiful!
Wonderful. So very pretty. Thank you for sharing that with us it's always a Wow!
Oh my goodness those are just beautiful 💕😊
I love the Trancas, but you should also check out Las Choyas otherwise known as coconut geodes!! Also very beautiful like the Trancas!
My favorite geodes!
Love the black band around the edge on those - they are beauties!
I'm a sucker for sparkle! Thanks for sharing!
Wow, some beauties today. I love your excitement, how can we not….its contagious!
Good point about the top and bottom of a geode…..
Incredible!!! So very beautiful! Thank you for sharing with us!!!
With the different sized crystals in the 2 halves of the same geode: the crystal size depends on the speed the crystals are formed, which depends on temperature. If I remember it right, the longer the rock takes to cool, the bigger the crystals. So maybe the side with the smaller crystals cooled quicker, e.g. if it was exposed to the air while the other side was in the ground so more insulated. Something like that.
My daughters and I love watching your videos! Thank you for the great content!
Awesome pieces. The intro was cool too
Thanks 😊
My favorite cut one was the first one you cut. In your collection was the first one!
Your excitement is infectious. The 4th geode is my favorite, but they are all beautiful. I've learned so much from you . Thanks, and keep on rocking!

Hey Taylor, it’s Joey again I’m B.J.s brother, I just want you to know that I’m still enjoying your show . You definitely keep me smiling, love the excitement, it’s contagious here.
The second one you cut is very pretty. The last one you cut is shaped like a snowman. Oh so beautiful and then the uv light makes them more beautiful.

Yes, very fun!!!
Love geodes ❤
That was so much fun! I’m sure you’ve been asked and have answered this question a lot, but how do you decide the best place to cut?
So pretty.
I need a bigger saw, lol.
Great content thank you for sharing.
They’re fun
Blooming WOW
❤ love geodes! Reminds me of being a kid, my dad brother and I popping them open using a hammer. Beautiful 😍
I love Geodes! These are awesome!
That 1 that you said is a crystal finger. It looks like the lochness monster swimming in the water.
It’s magic!!
heifer! LOL ... getting back to our roots, are we? As usual, another exciting cutting.
I really like grab bags ... and, cutting rocks is much the same prospect.
I've watch 3 so far and hit subscribe on the very first one. Beautiful gems.
Thanks!
Awesome indeed....it's like having your own little magical crystal cave all to yourself
Geodes are my favorite!
You should wet them before lighting them with the UV! It’s too cloudy when dried!
I'm from MN and love agate hunting. Been to the north shore many times and had great finds. I think I found a thunder egg when I was doing some landscaping, and it's a few pounds. Any tips or tricks on cutting it? I have a tile saw, but I don't think the clearance is big enough
It's my 1st time watching ANYONE do what you do , love it , love your enthusiasm! I've subscribed , I'm definitely be back x Suzy 🇬🇧 💎👏 x
I wish you could do more science. How do agates and geodes form? Has anyone covered this in the comments? When my son was young and very interested in fossils, especially dinosaurs, we were members of the Houston Gem and Mineral Society. I would make cabochons while he did projects they had for children. I have since moved away. Are there any of you members watching these?
I want to do this!!!! You are my new favorite channel!
❤️❤️❤️
I have a few rocks I'd love to cut. I just watch the video with the llama, do you still cut rocks for people?
Marvelous
Awesome!!
L👀king good!
That last huge geode could be a Snorlax geode 🤣
The last geode looks like it has some flower like structures in it! Cut some more!!!! PLEASE!!!!
I have this it is great for geodes and thunder eggs and slabs Covington 16 Inch Automatic Vibrating Flat Lap Machine
Good minerals
The snow man!
My favorite
Love the druzy bots!
What is the dark red areas. Is there a use for the loss crystles.
Какая красота!!!
You made me giggle when you called that last one a heifer lol
😅
Verrrry interesting ... and beautiful, too. At 10:00 - 11:00 - What is the mineral that is fluorescing green? And at 13:00 -13:47, what is the black, sparkly (druzy?) material around the outside edge of the crystal pockets? Carry on, your doing fine work.🪨💎♊✨🎇💖
I think the one that you say isn't a geode. I think there is one in there. You just have to slice off a knither slice off of there on each side and I bet you, it's a double geode side by side like that instead of top and bottom. It's side by side if that makes sense.
Que bonito
Agate dad , can you please make an jasper/agate/wood(agate)(slices or rough) table?
If I had the time I would
What type and brand UV light do you use?
The weird finger one at the end lol
How do you know where to cut? Can you cut the crystal s out? How do you know how much they are worth? Sorry for all the questions, this is new to me?
Where is best place in what state of USA are geodes usually found
DUDE!!!!
What brand of diamond blade do you prefer?
So far my favorite has been the 6” thin sintered blade from hi tech diamond
Nice…you can take the water guard off your flat lap to polish🙂
I’d need to be outside then lol
@@AgateDad you can put the whole flat lap in a wide trash can or big storage bin to catch the water…it works really good🙂
How long does it take for you to get through a Geode? Assuming these videos are sped up
I did a video of us geode mining. You should make plans to join us this spring when we go again. We go to Hamilton Illinois.
That sounds fun!
Here's an idea. Do the videos in the Spring or Summer, so your hands won't be so cold.
Keepers
ad 8:30, yes you are right, gravity cose it.
What is the red stuff inside did that come from the saw
