    Beautiful! It always amazes me how something as plain as some of the rocks can be hiding something so stunning inside. Thank you for sharing.

      19:55 That gorgeous iris agate reminds me that "iris" is the Greek word for "rainbow".

    my favorite was the iris agate with the triangular mountain. But the piece left from you grand finale had a pair of parrots talking to each other!🤣

    Do you think you could put lead strips around each piece of slab and create a mojasic , almost a stained glass window and hang it in a sunny window.. ???

    That Iris is the most gorgeous agate slab I've ever seen, hands down. All were beautiful though, thank you for sharing!

  • @taramartin6117
    @taramartin6117 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thank you sharing such beautiful stones, the pictures inside the agates are amazing. I lived in Lemmon, South Dakota for awhile and have some picture agate jewelry but definitely not of the scope, size and quality of your pieces. Someday I promise myself a large picture agate pendant should I live so long. Truly amazing what can be hidden inside a rock. Just like turning wood, until you uncover the beauty, you have no idea what you have.

  • @anniegironne8444
    @anniegironne8444 ปีที่แล้ว

    That first jasper was so colorfull and what a surprise with th lace and iris agates. Some of these slabs should be seen under Kim's microscope. Just a suggestion since we are all snowed in. ❄️😉

    I have been watching rock hounding videos for the last month. I have been looking for a hobby that isn't as expensive as jewelry making classes. I recently picked up some blue lace agate at a rock shop by the lb. Thank you for showing the cutting portion of rock hauls.

    @ramblinrobs47 ปีที่แล้ว

    I work on cell towers doing vegetation maintenance so I would visit 7 to 20 towers the day and I have only a 10in blade. So I picked up a 20 in drop saw that the d-ceased previous owner used for making spheres. I picked it up at first Creek rock shop in Washington, they still had all of this sphere making equipment also I just picked up the saw. I have probably 14 buckets full of agates exactly like the stuff you are finding. Brought to the Columbia River area 10,000 years ago in the Missoula floods. I can't wait to get it going. I also have a couple of buckets of uncut thundereggs for Richardson's Rock ranch Lucky strike Rock shop from Mitchell Oregon. Watching you're videos I'm pretty convinced on the 10,000 years ago Missoula flood theory. Love your videos hope to make it to your area sometime.

    @biker9835 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I had a rock that didn't have any cracks in it and I don't have a saw big enough. I only have a 7-in wet tile saw that rock has been sitting on my porch for 6 months and it had a little pattern showing on the two halves that I brought home. One half was bigger than the other half was a little smaller but I cracked an open because I was just getting mad of letting us sit. There is just in my mind that there was something there and I cracked it open. Got lucky as s*** got a nice clean break. Nothing really broke off other than a couple small flakes and it had the best pattern I ever found. I was so happy but I was pissed off the same time cuz it's been sitting on my porch

The jaspers (love those greens) and petrified wood are pretty terrific as well. Fantastic cutting video. Thanks for sharing these Theo!✌️🤠🤘

    @kellyemmons2690 ปีที่แล้ว

    Theo if you glue your rocks to a 2x2 or 2x4 you can safely clamp it in your saw. The person that told me about this trick uses wood glue. When he wants the rock off the wood he cuts it off leaving just a bit of wood then soaks it in a bucket of water and the wood glue will let loose of the rock.

  • @donnabeaudin9114
    @donnabeaudin9114 ปีที่แล้ว

    Theo all of these are so amazing! Every one you cut was WOW!! The agates with Iris are so beautiful,the Montana Lace agate was a jaw- dropping beauty, loved the Montana agate with the geode center! That black sparkly area you saw on that one slab may very well be pyrite, Just learned about Framboidal Pyrite crystals found in fossils and rocks, they are pretty smal, so I don’t know if that’s what they are or not. This was so much fun, and a much needed reminder that pretty soon we will be out rock hounding! Thanks so much Theo! 👍👍👍😊
