- In this one, we celebrate, because in my possession is a tool I have wanted for as long as I have been into rocks: A SLAB SAW!!! I decided to grab a pile of random agates to break in the new machine, and the results were fantastic! Densely mossy Montana Agates, botryoidal agatized coral, fortification agates, two iris agates that will be phenomenal after a polish, an amazingly unique piece of agatized wood, but the most rare discovery of all was a Montana Agate with PURPLE banding!!!! It was so much fun finally getting to get into my bigger stones, and what an incredible way to end the day on! I hope you all enjoy this one, and definitely look forward to more slabbing videos coming very soon!! I hope you all enjoy, and I will see you next time!

The petrified wood with the spots etc. is Gorgeous and so unique 🎉
I was in total awe of the agatized wood, but that purple agate takes the cake! It is phenomenal! Congratulations on your slab saw!
Old disabled house bound dusty rusty rockhound here: Amazing! Some of those agates are stupendous!
That agatized wood is SiiiiiCK! Congrats on little drogon! Excited to see you cut your amazing finds! 🤩 🤩 🤩 🤩
That agatized wood was spectacular!
Holy smokes. That petrified wood is absolutely bonkers. Seriously amazing slabs
You have a “Drogan-ette”
PURPLE!!!!!
Be still thy heart
The pet wood was everything 😍😍
I'd have to say that the purple Montana agate and fossilized petrified wood are my favorite!
They're all very beautiful!
That agatized wood has got me drooling! I would 💯 purchase a piece of that if you were selling. I would love to have a pendant made from it.
Congrats on the new saw. Can't wait to see more cuts!
That agatised wood has blown me away. I have never seen anything like it in all my years. That must be very rare. Exciting!
The purple banding is so gorgeous ❤❤❤❤❤❤
WOW!! You can do all things now without waiting. Looking forward to all the new adventures in 2023.
Welcome to the rock saw club!
Congrats on your new slab saw! I must say, that was the most satisfying cutting video I have EVER seen. I loved the blue/purple moss agate, then the (coolest) agatized wood with little stained glass agate windows inside!! Wow! So much fun. We know how long it takes to cut those too and you didn't make us wait to get to the good stuff. Thanks!
Wow…purple! Fabulous saw…I am so glad you have it…you deserve it. All your videos are fun and informative. Thank you so much. Solstice has passed and the days are getting longer.
Yay you got a saw!!! No stopping you now you found amazing stuff and we don't have to wait anymore to slab!! Love the agatised wood and the purple and iris!! I'm drooling 🤣😂🤣
Congrats Theo! I'm excited for you, and for us! This first batch turned out fabulous, but that last purp was jaw droppingly beautiful! Rock on!
The agitized wood is phenomenal!
Whoo hoo! Welcome to the shop son if grogon. So happy you will be able to make cutting videos. Yeah...!!! Awesome purple!!!
Congratulations on the saw and those crazy rocks. Blue and purple, oh my. Awesome wood too.
Wow, these rocks turned out beautifully!
Congrats on acquiring Son of Drogon👍🏼👏🏼🥰Looking forward to your future cuttings! You are so Talented- Love your work🥰💁🏻♥️👏🏼✌🏼
Wow. Just wow! On that petrified wood. So unique and beautiful!
Wow, Theo!! That is all such incredible material!! Thank you for sharing!
Ooo! I’d love a slice of that purple gorgeousness!!
Im so hyped for you Theo! Can't wait to see how much you cut in the future...Baby Drogon will get put to WORK!!
It's a wonderful saw, it cut some beautiful slabs, "Long live the son of Drogon". You're going to be even busier. Be sure to save time for your lady.
Getting a slab saw of your own is always great. Now you can cut slabs all year long. Eventually, you will have so many slabs you will have to high-grade out the "lesser" ones. I've been cutting slabs for years now and keep high-grading all the time. I guesstimate I've got around 5,000 slabs and I keep cutting more all the time. Like you showed in your video today, seeing what's inside them is like opening a present every time! I hope you get years of enjoyment out of that little saw and let me know when you catch up to me on the slabs. ;-)
Great cutting video, Theo! Congratulations on your new saw. ❤️
Woohoo Drogonson's first noms
You rock, your channel brings a lot of peace to my soul and my family thanks you
Congratulations on the slab saw! So fun to see you get to use it! Such beautiful slabs! And that purple agate totally awesome!
Congrats on the new saw! That purple agate and the petrified wood were awesome! I really liked the purple one! Thanks for sharing!
Great new toy! The pet wood and that last agate were amazing!
Those are all so gorgeous! That pet wood…🤯🤯🤯
Congratulations on the new toy man! Super sweet first cuts! Love that pet wood!
Some of the nicest rocks and and wood I remember seeing.
The first Montana agate looks like there is a ghost hiding in it, so pretty
Love your new toy and seeing your happiness. Can't wait for the next vid. Could watch every day x
MT Moss Agate was insane man! 🔥
My favorites matched yours! Can't wait to see cabs out of the wood!
Ohhh WOW! I'm very excited for you! What a blast you are going to have! Great cuts! As always a fantastic video!
I'm so happy for you, but I'll miss the hangout session with Rock Mom
Congrats on the Son of Drogon! Beautiful slabs
That is just wonderful! The rocks and the saw.
Congrats on your new slab saw, and also all the stones you cut were magnificent.
Incredible cuts. Congrats on the new saw.
Gotta love Conk that eats out the wood cell centers and lets them be replaced with agate or best for a single place: Precious Opals.
Love the slabs! So happy you got a slab saw of your own. Nice haircut by the way !
Loved the AGATIZED wood!
Hello Drogon junior
The Montana agate is my favourite
Congratulations on the New Saw
Kim will be able to visit you guys and cut some Treasures!!!
Yeah!!!! What fun!!!
Had some plans today but after watching this my plans have changed.
Have a need to cut rock all of a sudden.
This rock thing is addictive and a universal language, I don't believe I've ever met someone who could look at a specimen and not be entranced by the beauty and wonder.
Built in to human experience are stone's, and knowing their properties was quite important.
Deeply seeded ingrained memories at a genetic level me thinks.
Have a good time Theo
Oh so jealous! I can’t wait to buy one myself!!
Congrats on the new saw!!! Its amazing! All the slabs were amazing. But that palmwood is awesome! It is just beautiful! Ive never seen anything like it! and then that purple banded agate! Wow! Just awesome! Just stunning! I agree with your favorites. The purple banded agate has to be my favorite, and the the pet wood! But they were all gorgeous! Third has to be the agatized coral. So much fun. Congrats on the new saw. And have so much fun!
Wow Theo!! So glad you finally got a slab saw! Woohoo!! You cut some jaw dropping beauties, the petrified agatized wood is gorgeous, loved the purple in the last agate !the Iris agates , beautiful! Now you can through your finds from the past that you thought of slabbing, and actually be able to cut them at your leisure! So happy for you guys!👏👏👏👍😊
That Agatized wood is way cool!!!!! I'd LOVE TO OWN THE PURPLE AGATE, AND THE PET WOOD!!!!@
Beautimus❣️My favorite was piece #4 but the Agatized Coral was super cool too
Love love all of them, but mostly that you have the new saw, yeah!
Wow that wood is amazing and the purple agate. Well and all of them!! Oh and congrats on the saw
Congratulations on the new saw and all those rocks are amazing
Wow! Have fun with that! Had to say which one I liked best...they are all beautiful 😍 ❤
Congratulations Theo! So happy for you! And beautiful cuts, my favs were same, that pet wood was crazy! And the purple montana agate 🤩
All of those are just wonderful.
So much beauty! Thanks for sharing 🙏🏻💫💜
You should make a pendant with that petrified wood; Slab with grain for stripe pattern!
Amazing prices you cut.
I love the purple one and the one with all the stuff in it.
Wood one too.🤪😛🙃
Cool you get to cut what you get to hunt for. Looks like fun too. The pet woot with all little agate would have been interesting to see if the depth would show cut at slight angle. I really enjoy your videos.
Congratulations on the new saw, one step ahead👌👍😁
Congrats on your new saw!! Awesome slabs👍👍
Gorgeous, gorgeous! Stuff.
You do 'happy' very well young feller!
Dude I need a saw like that! I got so many big rocks that I gotta cut.
Very good saw, glad to see you got that one rather than some other brands. One change you may want to consider doing, the plywood wood faces for the grips on the vice, that is not original to the saw. You might want to consider replacing those with something like birch, a wood that is softer so the stone can be dug into the wood to help hold it better. If you do this, treat the wood as a consumable item and replace as needed. Also you might want to make some wedge shape pieces of wood of different lengths different thicknesses so you can help support the rocks better in the saw. For the remaining chunk of rock, get some pieces of 4x4, cut down to blocks and get some liquid glass, the. Glue the remaining rock onto the wood, cure for 24 hours, mount the block of wood in the vice and continue cutting. Put in a bucket of water for a day to release the last slab. Gorilla wood glue also works. Have fun cutting!!!!
* WOW ~ your first cut looks like Crazy Lace Agate.. So glad you don't have to travel to friends to visit their saws.. Now you can visit them while you Rockhound.. Hooray!! ~ At the 8:34 mark, the agate also has purple.. Love that color..
Congrats on the new family member 🤣. Excellent cuts❤ I really love seeing what is inside
The agatized wood looks likes a computer chip.🌞🙏💗
So happy for you, and a little jealous! I want a saw soooo bad!
Great investment! You can be the friend who can cut rocks and move furniture! If you only drove a truck! Too bad I'm up over hill past where the river heads east!
Amazing first cuts
Love that petrified wood.
Congratulations on your new saw, it is Awesome! You picked some really amazing ones to cut for your first time using it also. Only one dud out of all of those incredible agates, thunder egg, agatized coral and petrified wood, that is pretty mind blowing! Agatized petrified wood, blue and purple agates definitely tie for favorite with me. Fantastic cutting video with your new saw, looking forward to more. Thanks for sharing Theo!✌️🤠🤘
Beautiful agates.
Finally! A baby Drogon, no excuses not to cut rocks anymore. Saved the best for last, that purple banded agate and the petrified wood are amazing. Can't wait to see what you do with those.
Oh my Lord what a beauty now Montana rock mom’s gonna have to come over and try out your saw Gonna say it look like a dragon it’s the son of Drogon oh 🤩
Do some of your Dryhead agates!!! 😁😁
Wow!!!
Theo, l have seen, and have, quite a bit of petwood, some Palm. NEVER have l seen anything like that. STUNNINGLY BEAUTIFUL. I am partial to Palm as it is our state rock. (Texas). Thank you
Son of a Drogon!!! Hope this doesn’t mean we won’t be seeing more visits to Kim’s garage. .Indiana Geode there Theo lol! The other one I gave ya was from Illinois. The quartz was obvs from Missouri. That sucks it was a dud. But that pet wood made up for any and all disappointments! Enjoy the new toy! I’ll bring some goodies for ya to slice next time I’m in town.😂🤘✌️
Wonderful!!
Slab saw ❤️
The rocks didn't look large until you put your hand next to the first row. Great way to show us the size perspective! Excited for you. Congratulations.
Coolest Beans man So wickd you have a Cov. Son of Drogon is fitting , Rhaegal would have been wicked too his lil brother haha WICKED vid as usual man!! Finding that purple makes it all worth it eh
Oh My Gosh!!! I’m so excited and happy for you!!
The stones are absolutely amazing. Even the ones that you say aren’t as good.LoL. The one that had the little bit of moss, would look like a tree if you cut it right.🤔😁.
Anyway, wonderful stuff.
Definitely looking forward to more videos. Have a blessed day ✌️💜😃
