I think I'm gonna go with #2 as my favorite. I love how perfect the banding is. I like that full pattern, from edge to center. I also like how the colors pop. What really makes it stand out, though, are those beautiful quartz crystals. Don't get me wrong, the bands are definitely the main attraction, but the quartz really does make them stand out that much more. You hear people talk all the time about how agates remind them of candy...I think this agate is the epitome of that. It's gorgeous and unique and I love it!
My favorite is the one that was full of eyes! All are amazing, but the one with the pink bands was a close 2nd. It had a really unique crystalline structure to it. I paused the video just to get a better look at it. Besides the pink bands. Beautiful!
Love the mechanical drop saw with rotating vice, haven't seen one like that before myself but then again I'm an older guy who doesn't get out much. That #2 cut is really beautiful IMO-Great piece. Same with #4 (I would've slabbed that one) and Wow with #5. I've got a couple pseudomorph's that were found near the Oregon/Idaho boarder. I've cut one just under the size of a volleyball originally that ended with blue/white banding so slabbed up some to make some unique displays and jewelry that I've given away as gifts but kept the 4x4" "core" all polished up in my collection. The other two are sitting behind me on a shelf begging me to cut em~ 🤔Thanks for sharing the beautiful stones. Have a nice weekend ahead!
In 2000 I met a guy who turned me onto Coyamitos. I was fortunate to cut them for 3 years. We cut many pseudomorphs. Nothing this size though. They were always amazing to cut. Great pastels and strong fortification in color arrangements I had never seen. I'm digging #5. Not that #6 doesn't bring the sauce. Man, they're both amazing. I would have to save a couple for my personal collection if I was cutting them😉 Coyamitos that size are rare these days. Even more rare are the big pseudomorphs.
Wow!! I like the first one best, because it has such vivid purple color. I am glad you posted this video, because I have received a couple of pseudomorphs and was looking at them and wondering "how in the world am I supposed to cut this?"
Wow! These are phenomenal!!! It's hard to choose a favorite, but I think #5 is probably it for me. But I love them all.
Best I have ever seen. Beautiful
They are great! Thank you for sharing this. I like the first one best.
Wow !!!! Those are just so stunning and unique. #5 was my favorite.
Just breath-taking❣️❣️❣️ My favorites would be the purple ones. Great job cutting and polishing❣️
Outrageously beautiful
Number 5 is my favorite. It looks like a photo of a living cell. Beautiful cutting job Joshua !!!!
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Simply stunning! No way I could pick a favorite out of that batch. You have a great eye for picking out the best rough.
Beauiful!!❤❤❤
It's like choosing your favourite child; they are all beautiful and unique with their own little quirks.
Absolutely stunning!

Yeah, it’s German made. Here in America we have highland park and Covington crap to work with.
These are the most beautiful agates I've seen. 🎉
Fantabulous 🙂

Fabulous and dreamy pieces. I like all as they are so varied but perhaps 1 and 2 appeal most!!

Wow. Oh my. So awesome.
I loved the look before alot also. Don't know if I could have cut them.

I know this doesn't help, but all of them are my favorite 😊
Wow 2:50 not what I expected!!! 😍
I think 4. All the eyes! Lucky!😅
#1, side1!

I want that saw o.o
What's the cutting machine and does it use water or oil?
The saw is from a German manufacturing, but currently out of production.
I am using a special cutting oil. :)
Can we say pseudomorph one more time 😂😂🤣
My favorite one is the one with the long ‘erect’ cavity.
😅😅😅😅
Killer specimens
!!!
