    I hope you enjoyed this husk grinding adventure! Make sure to watch until the end to see an up close macro look at this beautiful agate!
    If you want more husk grinding action, check out this video where we do the same to 6 other agates: th-cam.com/video/THI0I5aWYMM/w-d-xo.html

    ‘I dropped it like it’s hot’ -teehee! Love to have humor mixed in a video. Some people are so dry! That’s not to say their videos aren’t good, it’s just that I DEPEND on humor to get me through my days. So to have beauty and laughter combined? Excellent! This was a beautiful stone! Mother Superior never fails to amaze, no matter what she produces. You are definitely one of my favorite video producers! It’s been really fun to see you take up this ‘hobby’, and all the growth you’ve achieved.☺️ Thanks for sharing!🙋🏻‍♀️☀️🌈🌊

    I’ve shown pretty close to no artistic abilities, until working rocks through my tumbler. Natural creations hidden by time and minerals come out like your fantastic little nodule. Your craft on that wheel is impressive, tumbling that little joy might have obliterated much of that detail. Fantastic!

    I admire your ability to restrain from grinding off more of the husk on your recent agate polishing videos. If I had those tools I would probably turn my agate collection into a quartz ball collection. 😁

    You did a lovely job on that nodule & really brought out all its details.....you have developed a fine, light touch so as to not take off too much surface. The colors are fantastic, and it is a fine specimen. You have every reason to be proud of the work you have done. Keep up the good work & thanks for sharing your talent & passion.

    Whoop there it is. I know people have this constant conflict between unfinished rocks and altering them. I like both worlds if you never polish them you can't see the real beauty hidden inside. Quartz is what I find most commonly when I cut my agates from my area. Good vid AD.

And do you have a good resource that you use to learn of places to rock hound and whether they’re public or private land?
