      I personally don't mind the natural fractures. I think they add to the natural beauty. I don't know how or why they affect your cutting and/or polishing, but as far as the end product goes, I think you should stop hating on them so much. Some of the stones you cut I like with the fractures and some I love without. Like you said, there is nothing you can do about it, it is what it is.
      I just love nature in ALL its forms!!!!

      I have often wondered if you have a store in Duluth. I'm from Owatonna and would love to see more of your collection. I'm curious why you would rather cut than tumble , polish. Also any other crystals from up there that you collect. Around here there is so much granite as well. Just walk down any gravel road .
      Here I had a collection and they were lost over time. You make me miss them.

    Hi, I absolutely LOVE the Bulgarian Green Agates! However, in future videos, would you please consider backlighting the agates that have external windows on the opposite side of the cut? With just a little pen light would be great. Every time I watch a video where the agates have a lot of depth, I just want to grab 'em and put a penlight to the backside. I wanna see what's in there! Thank you so much!

      Me too, although I think he would have to cut a thinner slice to be able to see the transparence with a backlight.

    We watch your videos with our rock loving little kids and I can't say enough how much I appreciate you saying, "Oh my gosh" or "oh my goodness" instead of saying something else. It's so refreshing to hear that...I always know I can trust your videos to be friendly for the youngest ears. These green agates were so cool to see to completion! Appreciate your videos!

    im glad you showed the full process... now what I would enjoy is a bit about how these agates are formed. I do a lot of decorative painting and I LOVE imitating stone patterns. it's absolutely ABSTRACT ART. as yes the deep green with the mustard yellow bands are lucious.
