I really appreciate your videos. I watched a guy using a air filtration unit attached to sandblasting with microscope to free trilobites and I thought I only want some basics so I can stop breaking up my Devonian sea shells, corals and trilobites. Very sad when they crumble to dust. Ammonites so far in eastern Pennsylvania Devonian pits and mounds are only yielding 1 to 2 inch speimens. I have some ammonites you sent to us, love them. Your prices are just right and I have several very nice ammonites from the "rough" you sent, very nice.
What is the liquid you put on it at the end? I prepare a lot of limestone ammonites from texas, do you have any suggestions on anything I can spray or apply to soften the hard matrix of the limestone?
Can I ask if you know what cutter polisher to buy, not just for fossils but I have lots of large quartz crystals looked at the wet wheel polishers but I’m not doing it for a job so don’t want to spend tonnes some look ok but wonder if they are hardy enough as they say they for amber and jade there about £200 thank you 😊
I have a 200 litre compressor but if your buying from zoic just ask them they will have everything you need, there trex is a great pen but mainly for matrix removal, i would consider buying the Chicago as you can do it all with that
I have so many awesome mortality plates and specimens that I can tell what is even underneath some of the rock from studying anatomy so much but I have no experience in prep. Maybe one day I will get money for a pen and just learn. Where I'm from in the states has an over abundance of silurian fossils so I would have plenty to practice on.
Nice vid, what works for me mostly but not always is as I approach the centre I leave a raised section of matrix then using the pen on low power as close to horizontal as I can, gently vibrate the matrix for a few seconds then move round 180 ° and do the same then move round again. If you like 12 o clock then 6 o clock then 9 o clock and 3 o clock. Often the whole chunk of matrix covering the centre pops in a wonner.

Amazing. Whats is the name of this equipment that you used to excavate ? Thank you from Brazil
interesting to see- good job on that dac
great video :) thanks for sharing
What do you plug the pen into? If so what do I need to get as I've saved up for the trex pen.thankyou!:) love watching your videos so entertaining

@@TheYorkshireFossilHunter ok thank you soo much!
Thank you for showing us your prep, really enjoyed this vid. How long was the whole process for this?
Just under 2 hour

This is great. How did you get this talented?
Nice work!
Thanks!
