Angel wings and a heart shape, nice going.😊

[@CWorgen5732]

That last one was so unexpected! I was shocked by the color differences and how clearly it was separated!

[@california3186]

Why is this my new favorite thing to watch!! Oh the suspense!!

[@AgateDad]

[@patriciamckean4186]

Cutting videos are so nice. It's just like Christmas. Anticipation of what it is!!!

[@AgateDad]

It really is!

I love how some of these Idaho agates look like yellow potatoes

[@tott3457]

What a generous gift from MarlorMining! The Agates you saw hearts I saw butterfly wings!😊

Potatoes from the land of potatoes.

Idaho is famous for growing potatoes.Years back my dad worked for a company that made potato chips and other snacks,and he made regular trips to Idaho to buy their potatoes

Thank you from Idaho...

All beautiful Idaho agates... thanks for sharing

[@janehelbert7551]

Thank you Braxton!

[@CarolynMcPherson-r3z]

Wow! These very distinct "water" level stripes @ 3:42 are fantastic!

[@AgateDad]

Yes they are!

[@tashacano3324]

I liked that last one the best actually. The really dark waterline was beautiful!

[@aldretaldret4310]

Some kinds of landscapes inside of them, integrating the earth' s story surely. 🤗😉👍🏻🌹

[@mamm7223]

The first blue water level bands one looked like angel wings! It was my favorite until you cut the last one...the black and white one. Every single one you cut was gorgeous!

[@jules8299]

I gasped with joy when you revealed the last agate. My husband wanted to know what was wrong. 🤣 Beautiful agates!

[@kellyharper367]

Old disabled house bound dusty rusty rockhound here: Season's Greetings from Michigan, U.S.A. Those Idaho agates are sooo fun! I get tickled at the noises you make at the first glance of a cut!

[@janettetippetts7942]

Agate Dad! I have rocks from the Snake River Valley Idaho! I've suspected they are agates as some of them have wear marks on them that are 'shiney'. There's a fist size piece of churt, and also a large smooth rock that has lines all around it from top to bottom, that I want to see what the inside looks like. I found the possible agates just laying on top of the dirt in a field and the churt and the other one I found when digging in a yard to plant a bush and a tree - one in the front yard and one in the back. HOW DO I contact you to get your costs for cutting these. I would pay for shipping both ways and give you half of each rock - if you wanted it; and you could pick the half! Oh WOW1 That black/white cut is Stunning! As well as the one that when you held the two cuts side by side looked like angel wings.

[@nsas54]

I grew up in North Idaho & collected rocks all the time. Who knew what lay beneath the surface? May have to take it up again. We have some pretty garnets up there too.

[@mella314]

Hey there! Gosh it is so fun to watch your videos! Your enthusiasm and joy in finding the treasure in each rock is totally amazing! I truly love watching you! I can't afford a cab king, but I tumble ans find the same joy you do with each rock. Thank you for bringing the rockhounding life into the light!🎉❤😊

[@travissharpe3831]

Second to last one was my favourite! Totally got the Star Wars reference and thought the exact same thing. Bespin Cloud Car. When you revealed it , blew my mind looked like the background for Cloud City. Thats is a beaut there!!

[@lynnrandal317]

Yay I have decided to get the I Lick Rocks stickers but I need to wait to ask for my parents permission and I need to wait 30 more minutes until the Premier 😅 also "It's beginning to look alot like Christmas!"

[@AgateDad]

☺️❤️

[@janehelbert7551]

Your tied for favorite looks like a butterfly!

[@sandmaker]

Cut, cut, cut. I thought you were going to make French fries, but you made beautiful jewlery instead. I espically like the dark light one. Keep having fun!

[@raystevens687]

That last rock 🪨 is my favorite out of all the rocks you just cut.

[@diananorman2074]

Those are beautiful! the last one has a face in it on the bottom left corner of the one side! so cool

[@seaberry_23]

Your fave, awkward nod, and the last one are my faves

Now that it is cold you can be a polishing and cutting fool. Winner winner chicken dinner, nice stuff have a great weekend.

[@lorigesch1295]

The second one has a sauropod profile! 🦕

[@Quack277]

I‘m laughing everytime you say „what a stinker being“ 😂

[@Orangatangerine]

If you want to check whether one of those quartz/calcite/ possible amethyst nodules are amethyst, cut a slice and play around with a light on different angles. Sometimes the colour really popts out if the light hits it right

[@viktorshevtsov3749]

Жаль , что не владею языком , не понимаю о чем говоришь .Но несмотря на это, очень люблю ваши видео и камни.Я тоже коллекционирую , но исходный материал кончился и приходится радоваться за вас . Удачи и хорошего материала , для работы .С уважением!

[@lauratroxel24]

Those would make excellent slabs for jewelry.

[@sue9545]

Thanks Braxton!

[@jayburkhart1781]

the first one with the water lines, when you put it side by side, it looked like the Van Halen logo. you know i enjoy your channel. i like the way you have different labeled bins. what if you set up a spinning wheel with the different locations and sometimes do a random spin show? i think it would be great but its' my idea so of course i see it's greatness. either way, you rock

[@Faylenbeckett]

3:19 Those look like wings so cool!

[@CH-wc6hl]

The larger flat agate looked like an ancient axe. The one before the "turkey" agate.

[@fossilfighters101]

woah the last one was incredible!!

[@janehelbert7551]

Love your video! You given us another place to hunt on our way to Montana!

[@vtx2023]

[@sherrybriggs5459]

Should be some great ones look like eastern ones

[@daniellegibson9390]

@1:37 the it looks like blue flame/fire on like a match or candle 🤷🏼‍♀️ just my opinion @4:00 looks like tear drops very cool

[@lauraalejandraalvarez4179]

Hermoso trabajo!👍🏻👍🏻 Los Cecimates un poroto al lado de tu mate😂😂

[@This_Time_Next_Year_Rodney]

You should try and use some wood to rest the rocks on as you cut, stronger than the plastic and will cause less vibration/shaking of the rock that’s being cut

[@AgateDad]

That’s a good idea :)

[@janehelbert7551]

I liked the amethyst agate the best!

[@audraacklin9826]

Good morning. How's everyone there in Minnesota? Is it snowing yet? Love you videos! Thanks! ❤️😃🥶

[@Marlor_Mining]

Central Idaho!

[@susannehubbell2799]

Where did these agates come from? I'm from Idaho and would love to go find some the next time I go home!

If you turned the Idaho agate at 3:17 a little bit more it's the same shape as Idaho.

To avoid possibly creating fraction when cutting make sure there are no knobbys on the top or bottom of your cut.

You make cuts in a hurry, you fracture and chip the stones and the grinds are curved. The sanding must be flat, not curved
