Ammonite Fossil Preparation - Dremel 290 & Paraloid B72 [EmGems]

[@donaldbrizzolara7720]

Emma: That piece is drop dead gorgeous! I really like the contrasts in color and textures. Love the way you cleaned out the inner whorls and umbilicus. Excellent hand and eye control with the Dremel. I think you are a natural as a preparator. Keep working on your skills when you can. Beautiful job!

Watching Dremel is so satisfying 😌

Amazing colors once you had it all coated 😃! (Pretty impressive detail on those fingernails too 😉👍.)

I have 3 calioceras ammonites from Texas 8 10 and 11 they're huge. I'm a novice collector. I hope this turns out all right. Live and. Learn. I'm so excited and used your tips.

A lovely Harpoceras ammonite - great job, Em! The Dremel was such a great investment...

Great video, and I also liked the environmental(nature) sounds in the background, but I bet you were like let me get my nail game on point for these close-ups, lol.

[@themagicman20081]

you have beautiful nails you seem to keep them very nice even when you're working on something is hard as a rock and the mud you have to clean up

Gorgeous fossil. How long do you think that ammonite took to grow to that size?

[@captpaul8827]

Amazing job, Emma! You certainly do some great work on preparing fossils. I also noticed you do the same thing I do when working alone..... hum/sing to myself. ;-) Btw: check your email for a message I sent a while back.

[@juanantoniocolemantheoakcl7763]

I don't know if I spelled the name correctly. Calioceras right?

Are you sure you are not Lettice Rowbotham

How many acetone you need for the paraloid?

[@EmGems]

You can make all different concentrations depending on what you want to achieve - a 50% solution makes a glue, and then for a varnish I tend to put about 10-20% paraloid (i can make a video on it if you'd find that useful!) 😊🦕
