- Join along for some Lake Superior rockhounding and after we battle a windy, snowy, sunny at times, and then windy again.. kind of day, we head back and break out our 10" lapidary saw and cut open a bunch of our treasures from our rock hunting adventure! I was very happy with the results of our biggest agate of this hunt and I cannot wait to polish it in a future lapidary video.

The weather on this hunt was all over the place, I apologize for the clips where the wind and waves took over the audio! Make sure you watch until the end to see that first beautiful agate cut open, I was not disappointed 🥰
Would you ever consider dropping GPS points of where you go? I’m from southern WI and am not super familiar with where I can access the beach shore.
Yesterday I did this outside of my work and found the most beautiful Quartz Agate... No kidding.. outside of a Casino's rock bed bro...
That driftwood would make an excellent way to display some rocks 🤩
You braved the weather to hunt, sliced your finds, and took microscopic photos of them all in one video. Wow! Thanks for posting this video, I enjoyed it,
Blustery day but find anyway. At least you found a couple keepers
That last agate cut was beautiful! Great video!
That last one was *chef's kiss* Congrats!
Yesss!
I love just seeing what’s inside. It’s a rock nerd rush! 🤓🤓🤓😁
Haha I get that
The second after the goofy one, with its three coloured bands... Wow! 😍😍😍😍😍
Just loved the way you say double bubble😜
It’s fun 😆
You found some awesome things! Froze your silly rear end off! but nobody noticed! That wood was really amazing! different but it had character! and man, slicing open those rocks is so satisfying. With the cool music playing in the back ground, it just flowed awesome! Thanks for letting us play with your rocks, with you! And the double bubble was cool and different in its own way. And of course the last agate was a stunner, but you knew it would be!+
Perfect video my friends
I’ve been waiting to see what’s inside of quartz and chalcedony.
Beautiful rockhounding !!!
Brrr..I hope you've warmed up! Luv the green agate.
They are all beautiful in their own way.
not beautiful as y babe
The transition between the quartz and chalcedony in that last guy was awesome. Awesome video my man. Thank you!
I cannot wait to polish it! Thanks man!
How did i miss this one? Well, as usually your finds are amazing!
No worries ☺️
I kind of liked the yellowish one with dark center. Unusual. Might make some pretty cabs.
Good stuff indeed! It was fun!
🤘🤘 thanks man!
Very interesting and fun to see what’s inside.
Thank you for sharing ❤️👍👍
I'm glad you came back to where it's warm, inside. Love cut rocks and most were beautiful. I like the one that looked like there were dog heads inside. Thank you exposing the beauty and sharing it with us. Keep the fun coming. Be happy, safe and stay healthy 😷⚒
The pink rock at 5:00 sure looked a lot like Datolite 😀
That was actually a good Lake Hunt. You found a decent spot. I haven't been watching any Agate vids from anyone lately; I've been so bummed out over my creeks not thawing until the past week, plus the precip. on top of it all. Today and Sunday I was finally able to do a bit, and one afternoon last week. You better hurry up and get there before anyone else, and you WILL find some gorgeous agates. Bi-polar weather;😝😝😝. Well put.
Great video, from hunt to cut. Awesome keep them coming!!!
Sweet! Very lovely
I’ve been waiting for a video like this. Home run Taylor. And so the season begins.😎
Yes it does!
Love the close ups.....and galaxy stone!!!
My first agate was a green one, cool
LOVE the videos! Even with the CRAP weather!😂 Still think you should make a coffee or game table!!! Think it's called 2 part appoxy where you pour it & it dries CLEAR!😃Think it would be EYE POPPIN!!!💕💕💕
Oh how I miss hounding on Lake Superior ( Canadian side 😉) even in weather like that. So many lovely finds but I have to say, the last agate nodule you cut open…amazing! Cannot wait to see it polished up!
Thanks for taking us along on this adventure!
Short but sweet!
Love the surprises, great or not so much:)
Cheers,
Rik
Thanks for the adventure!
Nice and beautiful stone findings, many unique stones are encountered ...
The weather is for sure still so unpredictable. Cool finds. Love the driftwood. I will pick up unique pieces too. They just kinda speak too me. I have projects lined up for them in the future. Can't wait to see what you polish.
I have a bunch of agates and possible agate’s. Wish i could send them too you. To find out what they are and have them cut and polished/labeled. I would give you half the rocks. I have a full shopping sack of ones to cut. 🤔 🧐 i might buy a small saw; and try sanding some myself on the polishing disc. Great work on the videos! Nice find’s! 😎 👍🏻 🧐
Well I really liked your last rock I'm wondering if that could make a nice cab. Nice job though on what everything was there Nice in there own way.
Hi ho hi ho it's off in the snow I go. I would go blind looking at all those dry beach rocks but it is always worth the effort. Nice piece of drift wood soak that in polyurethane and it will be a bute. On the agate it looks like there is a botryoidal wall in the inside behind the quartz pocket.
Hey you can start hitting the creeks again. I have had a couple of really great days now. Most of my finds are on the edges, BUT the couple I've found in the currents are phenomenal.
Alot of cool finds!!@
Pretty finds
Love it!!!
nature’s surprise toy box openings
I'm really interested in pudding stones.
Could you possibly make a video on how to recognize ie. Process them?
Love your work.
I’ve never found one so I can’t help
The last rock was the best, but the wood was REALLY great. It looks like a fish.! The left side looks like some of those fish whose lower lip juts out and up. You have an eye just behind it and then the little hump sticking up is a fin. The shape makes it look like the fish is in motion. Such a cool piece of wood! I tried to see if I could attach the screenshot, but I don't know how I can. ☹️
Hola viejo me gustan sus videos este tengo bastantes piedras
Awesome day out there, even I'd it was colder and the waves, still peaceful and grounding. Thanks for the awesome cuts Taylor!
Great video, Taylor! I absolutely love seeing what’s inside. Is it just me or does the double bubble one look like BB-8?
4:15 I’ve found a BUNCH of that stuff in Lake Superior, I don’t think it’s agate but man it sure does want you to think it is
8:25 👌
How do you not get nervous having your fingers move just centimeters away from that saw blade wow
Because it’s a toothless diamond blade
@@AgateDad incredible! I’m new to this and just recently began agate hunting. I love your channel, thanks for the insight, I’ve been binge watching your videos the past few days :)
❤️
Hi!!
Do you find carnelian in Minnesota?
Orange translucent agates?
@@AgateDad I found a small red transparent, no lines and very smooth on Lake Mille Lacs
Hola . Que haces con ellas
Tienen algún valor comercial
Rob calls maybe agates "magets". Mother nature has been bipolar for sure.
