    Can you remove music and repost? It would REALLY help to hear your wonderful advice!

    Nothing more aggravating than a sound track louder than the orator.

    I'm fascinated by your tumblers could you do a build or explaining the build video. Please, that's such an awesome system.

    Amazing setup you have. The video is very interesting but I had difficulty hearing you over the background music. I like the music, just a little too loud.

    Listen, I enjoyed the video and that amount of rocks is what I dream about. But could you please remake the video with the music a bit louder. It be nice to be able to hear the music while your talking. Keep on rocking in the free for now world.

    Mike, great video, but the music overpowers everything the video is trying to do.... Other than that, great video... I cut and tumble lots of Montana moss too... Nothing better!

    Hey. I tumble lots and go through a ton of grit. What do you use for grit ?

  • @modeldaughters
    @modeldaughters Před 7 lety +1

    Say... you're the agate beach guy, right? If so I've purchased a couple of fairly large packages from you - one of Montana agate nodules (large ones) and one of India black skin agate. Some of the best material I've ever bought and really good prices. Hope you're still in business, you sure did me right. Kudos!

    using the windchimes to cover the sound of all those tumblers?

  • @poly_hexamethyl
    @poly_hexamethyl Před 2 lety

    Nice tumblers and terrific results! Just wondering....do you find the straight-sided barrels work better than the round ones, or are they about the same?

    Hey brother nice stuff. Where abouts are you? Im in helena. Jeez you can tumble tons!!!

  • @Pentapus1024
    @Pentapus1024 Před 7 lety

    All those tumblers! All going at once, no less. But with the amount of rocks you can find in 5 days floating down the river, I suppose you'd need a pant-load of tumblers. You could build a house out of agate.

  • @wazzap500

    great music choice!

  • @rawdawgpendants5490

    I do this too but i also shape and slice

    would have loved to hear your comments but the piano was too loud

  • @emdee7744
    @emdee7744 Před 4 lety +5

    Your music is far too loud and obnoxiously repetitive. It's very difficult to hear your voiceover and I couldn't finish your vid.

  • @Africanfrogs
    @Africanfrogs Před 7 lety +1

    Why not just get larger tumblers?

    hello are selling those beautiful stone

  • @macb7501
    @macb7501 Před 4 lety

    Cant hear very well, did you say you use three steps and tumble for a total of three months? I tumble a course grit, fine grit, prepolish and polish each for 10 days. End result is a beautiful polish. I would think 3 months would be totally unnecessary but I'm wondering if maybe your rocks are that much better. I might have to rethink my way of tumbling. Any suggestions on where to get affordable grit? I'd love to make my own if there is a good way to do so?

  • @EDLaw-mf9vm
    @EDLaw-mf9vm Před 3 lety

    No wonder our beautiful rocks are harder to find.

  • @KaneLono
    @KaneLono Před 4 lety +1

    Yep! 100% Illegal to pull rocks from that river and take them home.

  • @nobackhands
    @nobackhands Před 6 lety

    Have you ever tried Aluminum Oxide rather than silica
    of the same grit? At Harbor Freight, the
    AO is nearly half the price.

    • @macb7501
      @macb7501 Před 4 lety

      Yeah but could you imagine how much you would need to tumble that many rocks? Would cost a small fortune.

  • @jeremyolivarez9295
    @jeremyolivarez9295 Před 9 lety +1

    U rock dude, your the king of rock ,but moss agate looks green and mossy ,yours where more agate but beuitiffull ,keep rocking any way when I think of moss agate I want to see green moss ok ,

    • @jacobbrown07
      @jacobbrown07 Před 7 lety +1

      What a bizarre comment... Look up moss agate. Yes the India material is mostly green, but green is not the definition of moss agate. What you want it to be doesn't matter.

    • @modeldaughters
      @modeldaughters Před 7 lety

      Jeremy Olivarez Moss just refers to the dendrites having mossy sort of structure and doesn't necessarily have any more to do with color than plume agate (again - just refers to the structural appearance not the color). Most green Moss agate I've seen, though not all, is really chalcedony and not agate (no banding) though through all of this we see as much custom in naming practices as we do science or geology.

    • @assmaster420
      @assmaster420 Před 5 lety

      Jeremy Olivarez who care what you looked up, ask someone in the lapidary/geology and we will have tell you. Don’t argue when you are ignorant

    • @macb7501
      @macb7501 Před 4 lety

      Na. The dendrites are what give them the name moss agate. They look like pieces of moss trapped in the agate. More often than not the montana moss agates I find are perfectly clear.
