If I had to live my life over again I would not have chosen healthcare..I love my career, however, I would have chosen to be a gemologist..I am a jeweler and watching you guys makes me happier than happy due to my intense interest in gems!!! Thanku for this channel ❤
I was just telling my friend that I wanted to go to GIA when I was a teenager. That was 44 years ago. I wonder where I would have landed if I had chosen that path.
Fantastic! My old man was a hobby geologist with a bit of palaeontology thrown in and had a couple of small cut geodes many decades back. They were always passed down to kids in the family, so I don't even know who has them now. But they are always beautiful to see and great fun to own!
I’ve got tons of amethyst cathedrals, 100lb ones, 60lb ones down to table top ones they’ll all beautiful from the galaxy to the druzy to the lavender to the dark jelly purple My favorite kind of geode
@@4061earthabcdesong if you wanted the largest pieces are for sale for the right price. They’re a wonderful investment if you buy the right gems, stones, materials etc.
I have dreamt of owning a cathedral my whole life; literally since I was about 7 years old. This will be my year. Honestly, I’m only at the part of the video where a big piece cracked and broke off, but I felt my heart break with it. I’ll be 45 in April, and I am manifesting an amethyst cathedral this year. Wish me luck!
@@noraramos3798 you absolutely can get one they come in all sizes! I’m wishing your reality is bigger than your dreams and you get the cathredal you’ve been dreaming of.
Usually cut me own, however since y'all have done such an outstanding job, this was the biggest geode cut to date on your channel & it's so beautiful... I purchased the one that Rebecca and Christopher were fighting over....I hate to see friends fight! Y'all can come visit it in Oregon tho ANYTIME! Tanks Mates & Yeas I Will Be Carving A Special Base For Her! =👉💎👈=
For future reference you should have cut it from a line that circumnavigated the whole geode, placing the cutting disc from the top instead of cutting it from the side to avoid a crack or fracture.
My dream has always been to have a large Amethyst Geode and use additional Amethyst crystals to make a water feature for my home. It is my birthstone and my birth sign is a water sign. Someday. The second one you showed would work perfectly for a water feature.
Quartz dust is very bad for your lungs. The water helps, but the dust remaining after the water evaporates is also hazardous, so be careful when cleaning up.
I wish I can show y'all mines. It's blue and I had it for years, it doesn't break nomatter how many times I drop it and its so many crystals inside I can't tell.
very nice your video i am from rio grande do sul i live near the city of amethyst do sul where there is the largest amethyst deposit in brazil i am happy to know that our state is remembered for one of our riches a big hug to friends across the ocean
I can help with some information on lapidary saws. Lortone is one company, there are several mostly in the USA, they are expensive. Two types, automatic feed and gravity feed, gravity feed is lowest priced and has less parts, they can be faster cutting. Look at masonary saws, they cost less but the cut is not as deep. Making one or having one made is a serious option and probably a lot cheaper. Good luck
Awesome action video,tense cutting that beauty ,great job cutting,beautiful insides wow, sweet knowledge and why they are held together like that. Well I’m in agreement with the one you both like awesome video thank you
I have a very large amethyst cathedral with gem quality all inside that I am looking to sell could you tell me where is a good place to look into selling it??
I live in Brazil and I've visited Rio Grande do Sul a few times. Never knew about their amethysts. I usually buy from Minas Gerais or Bahia. I must find a way to buy these RS stones ❤
How does one pursue an education and career in mining and geology? I would love my college student son to look in this direction. He has the creativity and the intelligence.
The best deal I ever got was when I happened to pass by a 'Psychic & Mineral Expo' in Los Angeles on the morning after their last day. They allowed me to walk through and look at what remained. I was able to purchase a carved geod, of a beautiful, amyethest heart. When I returned home, out of state, the single mineral, metaphysical shop in town, had a similar amythest heart for $450! I mean, we just can't continue placing profit above helping and healing everything, everyone. Thank you both💎
Cut it on the ground. A saw that big and heavy shouldn’t be held up like that if you can help it. Plus any debris that gets kicked out by the blade won’t hit you in your torso.
OMG, that is the tallest geode I have ever seen.😲😃🪨 To know it come from Brazil🇧🇷 and other places🇲🇽 you can find geode is interesting.🤔 How you use a big saw🪚 to cut it is both cool and scary😰 and it's filled with beautiful amethyst is amazing too. Which is my favorite gemstone.🥰💜💎 I wish I could have one. Also nice gem bolo tie. Nice video and hope to see another one like this.😉👍💎
I wish they didn't show what was inside before they even cut it open in.the cut away I didn't even have to watch the full video to find what's inside toke away from the hole video
Because of the water trapping the dust and the mask, there really wasn't much of a smell while cutting. After, there was a faint smell of water/metal/dust.
I'm glad you wear mask stress the importance of water and mask and gloves also outside preference or well ventilation all quartz variety can cause silicosis and many have asbestos and very hazardous materials sadly a friend that's a er doctor had a man come in who bought a bunch of quartz amethyst geodes and other quartz cut them without liquid or mask in garage for approx a few hours a day four days a week for six months caused him to have full silicosis and be terminally diagnosis when I cut my first gems I didn't know anything about dangers and spent the first couple months no protection I didn't use water even I'm very lucky I didn't get permanent damage but there needs to be more education for beginners warning from rough sellers etc
No one gonna point out the fact that his bolo tie is proberly worth more than a house? (I'm new to gems, it may not be as expensive as i think.... but still!)

Same 😊
I agree
I was just telling my friend that I wanted to go to GIA when I was a teenager. That was 44 years ago. I wonder where I would have landed if I had chosen that path.
Yeah me too.
Yeah, why help sick people when you could be a selfish ass!
Awesome Amethyst geode but that Turquoise on Chris’ Bolo tie is impressive! Very nice!

How come u keep so many of them? I'm just being curious

I love the way the geode cut apart! I think the piece that sort ooopsie’d, is really really cool!
Thank you for such fun & inspiring content!
Crystals and minerals bring me so much joy! Totally get psyched with that same excitement! 💜💜💜
Yes am addicted too 💎
Woahhh it's so beautiful I love this!
I've looked, my entire life for a geode like this one! Wow!
I agree with the comment below. Hearing protection is a must. You might want to where waterproof jackets or aprons as well. Love the crystals!
Absolutely beautiful! But is no one going to mention how completely phallic that cathedral is! Lol! Love this piece!!!
As pedrinhas do nosso Brasil 😊🇧🇷
The smallest piece with the hole gorgeous! 😍
Awesome 🤩 just bought some amethyst to facet! Amethyst is one of the most beautiful stones 😍
Awesome segment guys!!!

Keep up with the good work
Awesomeness! Love the turquoise bolero

Keren sekali crystal Amethystnya, di Pasar Rawabening - Indonesia juga banyak yang sudah di olah dan di jadikan pajangan, terimakasih🙏🙏🙏👍

Great job 💞

Thank you for a cool video
What is the best way to clean the big geodes? I have a few and can’t figure out how to clean them from dust build up.
I'm guessing you could wash it out with a hose like she was doing.
Can I break my amethyst catheadral if it’s already been halved I want to make it into chunks
A very delicate job.😎
I like his huge bolo tie
Beautiful 💜💜💜
Wow, no ear protection haha. Very cool video:)
I karabi, from baruipur, want to get these beautiful violet parts
How can I get?
Hey guys how to connect u
I live in Brazil and I've visited Rio Grande do Sul a few times. Never knew about their amethysts. I usually buy from Minas Gerais or Bahia. I must find a way to buy these RS stones ❤
Is there a channel like this with no talking?
How does one pursue an education and career in mining and geology? I would love my college student son to look in this direction. He has the creativity and the intelligence.
AGAIN WOULD LIKE TO SPONSER YOU GUYS!!
Do more with smaller ones that you can list! i was going to buy one but the cheap one was sold already
There are cheap ones all over the internet

Hi guys I do want to connect to u, since I do have source of Amythest & smokey quartz. Jean from India
Hi,
Absolutely stunning.
How much does it cost?
Muito bom 💯👏👏👍🤝
honestly the amethyst geode looks delicious to eat 🕴
My grandson cracked open a small one just like that. Beautiful
This was so exiting
Could you say sold on the amethyst second from the bottom in the description?
Our pleasure!
Question…are these geodes where the amethyst crystals come from to make amethyst jewelry?
Keep doing you!🔥🔥
Nicely done. I'd add hearing protection next time. Stunning geode.
11:11 Aye Aye Aye
Imagine drinking grape soda out of a purple geode
Why are you using a slotted blade, doesn't it chip the leading and trailing edges
Đà đẹp và sang trọng 👍👍👍
There is a town called Amethyst in Rio grande do Sul, Brazil.
I Love To Have A Lot Of Turquoise And Blue Topaz Gemstones.
Good job, after 20 seconds in with "spoilers" I don't have to watch the rest...
Great work!! Some shock proof gloves would help your hands not to start shacking so bad. Learned that from weed eating for hours at a time 😉

Where can one find a writer who is passionate about gemstone?
What is the price
Check out the links in the description for product info on each item, including prices!
@@gems thanks
cool
Could you do an episode about why diamond, corundum gemstones and beryl gemstones don't form in geodes?
LoL. Safety first!
Mask: check!
Eyes: check!
Earplugs: wait.. what?
Take off your dangly jewelry before operating power tools: oh, umm....
Surprise, yay, ohhh look at that.
WOW I had no idea would look like that in side.
Really, really, really, so you couldn't see through that hole.
I have one small half round, that I inherited from my dad with Amethyst in there, and some smoky quartz
Everyone wants the one that looks like an arched doorway! lolol
I wish they didn't show what was inside before they even cut it open in.the cut away I didn't even have to watch the full video to find what's inside toke away from the hole video
If you lay them on old tires, the rocks won't move when you cut
I really dug thjs episode; HOWEVER next time wear PROTECTIVE EAR GEAR!
earpluuuuugs 3:45 :c poor eardrums
I wear an American Amythest everyday I mined myself and took to a jewelers to cut
The crooked line is from lack of experience using that saw in the fact that it was too heavy for him
Tough job feeling sorry for you
Hate to correct but that is a saw not a grinder
Grinder is not meant to cut but to remove material
❤
It was 10 months
Should use a waterjet. Geodes of that size deserve more precision than this cut
Agreed. I would love to have done this with a waterjet but sadly that wasn't in the budget. Hence the water saw rental from the big store next door.
I want to know: what does it smell like?
Because of the water trapping the dust and the mask, there really wasn't much of a smell while cutting. After, there was a faint smell of water/metal/dust.
Water pressure its drip fed vibrations dot that not water pressure
OoO you found the amethyst geod from mincraft
Chris should be able to keep all the pieces
Maybe a jeweler should be involved because don't they see how Gems are cut?
So beautiful, God's creations. 🥰✝️🙏🏼
I'm glad you wear mask stress the importance of water and mask and gloves also outside preference or well ventilation all quartz variety can cause silicosis and many have asbestos and very hazardous materials sadly a friend that's a er doctor had a man come in who bought a bunch of quartz amethyst geodes and other quartz cut them without liquid or mask in garage for approx a few hours a day four days a week for six months caused him to have full silicosis and be terminally diagnosis when I cut my first gems I didn't know anything about dangers and spent the first couple months no protection I didn't use water even I'm very lucky I didn't get permanent damage but there needs to be more education for beginners warning from rough sellers etc
earplugs next time guys those high frequencies from the saw are sooooo bad for ,your ears
A cansa né
No one gonna point out the fact that his bolo tie is proberly worth more than a house?
(I'm new to gems, it may not be as expensive as i think.... but still!)
@ 7:51 you have a really cool looking, almost like a wave about to TUBE, piece of crystal. Just saying. Don't cut. 🙃
👍👍👍👍👍
