Cutting Lake Superior agates open on my lapidary saw!

I cut open eighteen Lake Superior agates and the beauty hidden inside was shocking!! This batch of agate gems was sent to us by Evan and I was so happy that so many of these amazing minerals were absolute bangers! It is always so fun seeing inside these agates when they are cut open on our lapidary saws. No two are the same and it is a blast seeing inside them for the first time!

You always cut the prettiest pieces.

[@bradbenes425]

Hi agate dad how can a person get ahold of you personally?

[@TurtleGrams]

What determines the way you cut them and have you ever sliced each one in many slices ? Some sliced in more than 1 slice tell stories

[@DrJ4712]

I hate it when you say "We are down to the last agate!" Nooooooo!😫 Thank you Evan for sharing your beautiful agates with us!😊❤

[@robertjamesseeley741]

[@jimdutcher6678]

Thanks for sharing these with AD. That was cool of you. Fun to see what's hiding inside of them.

[@vanessafrankson512]

[@JesusIXI]

I got to see all of these agates before Evan sent them over to you and I cannot believe how beautiful they turned out! Thank you for all that you do and fantastic work as always! 🙌

[@MaryACole-n4r]

Hi Taylor! I started watching your rock hounding videos a couple of years ago and I've recently started watching your cutting videos and I'm completely addicted!🥰

[@meg2831]

15:14 i really love the mossy ones, they are always so different.

[@NickAcker2019]

Amazing finds Evan!! Thank you for sending them to Taylor to cut❤

[@WMartinKeck]

Thank you, Evan! These were incredible! And thank you for sharing, Taylor!🤩

[@maryseaman312]

7:27 - - Jaw dropping! WOW!

[@lubnaashraf8127]

OMG! I have loved rock collecting since I was a little a girl. It is so exciting watching you cut these agates! I gasp every time I see the banding!

[@maryannkom299]

I’m so addicted to agate cutting!

[@AgateDad]

same!

[@lisamills-wv6nc]

Wow! Those agates were phenomenal! Really gorgeous! Thank you for sharing! 😊

[@meg2831]

7:38 that is such a crazy looking one! Wow! It's so busy and just neat.

[@BigJohn51976]

The first one you show I would call the "Fire Agate". With it's reds and oranges would be the fire and the white bands and the Quartz acting as smoke. Nice agate!!! And the last one you cut open could be The Magical Shroom. And we are the second people to see inside these agates. First being mother nature herself. She was the one to have the formula for all these agates.

[@elainelear4982]

Wow, so many great agates. Hard to choose a favorite one. Although the last one was 'oh my gosh' worthy!!

[@peggyallen6084]

You are such a rascals! Love it!! Not show it? Not happening!!❤

[@JulesUS8386]

I hope you have some of those beauties left if I watch later. Always enjoy your reaction to the surprises though😊

[@kgabba]

You got me with the last one 😂👌🏻

[@sharoncrawford4786]

Nature is a wonderful thing , who knows what else is out there .

[@donnaboyle669]

Exceptional agates. It’s like Christmas, all these gifts . I liked the last one of course, but my favorite is the orange one after the 4th or 5th agate cut. Loved that one. I could watch you cut all day. Thank you so very much. An entertainer in addition.

[@JensensAdventures]

Those were all beautiful, but yeah that last one was the best, thanks for the video!

[@AgateDad]

Glad you like them!

[@susannehubbell2799]

That second to last one got you good!!

[@lindamorrison9755]

The agate rocks are always surprising and beautiful

[@darrinwilliams5715]

That was a master class of studs. That is what LSA is all about. Too cool😎😎

[@AgateDad]

Absolutely boss!

[@cathyscism1817]

The last one you cut is so beautiful 😍

[@susangingrich2591]

[@meg2831]

Honestly i wanted to comment on every one of them but thought that might get a bit annoying lol. I love watching you cut. I used to get nervous watching your fingers get so close but I've watched so many of your videos now that i don't worry anymore cause i know you know what you are doing. You rock 😁

[@nyamuochpaul4279]

[@amberandrews6842]

Great agates! The one you called an albatross? I saw a Phoenix, it was upside down, but it even had the corona of fire around it!!!

[@AgateDad]

Love it!

[@judyjones2727]

That last one is a 10+

[@tracyroberts7918]

Hello Taylor, I have never commented on your channel before now and I'm sorry to say I have watched every single one of your videos! This video has blown me away and in my opinion is the best one you have ever done. It's edited beautifully and the content is awesome and the stars of the show as always the stunning agates. Im a collector and and cut and polish agates too so know how much hard work goes into it all. Keep up the good work best wishes from Tracy in Scotland.

[@janehelbert7551]

I liked the one at 8:00 but the last one was my favorite!

[@lizlaine9319]

[@janehelbert7551]

Thank you Kevin!

[@kathleengarlick6952]

🤩🤩 that was awesome. I can feel my Blood pressure going down when I watch your videos. Besides the obvious last one my favorite was that mossy/quartz one at the 14:15 mark. I absolutely love your videos. Keep 'em coming.

[@beckyandrew53]

Really nice batch of agates. I love the reveals

[@CorpseBride64]

I'm so glad I found this channel, I'm really enjoying it. I get a kick out of his pronunciation of certain words. So weird how dialect varies from state to state. 💕

[@jimmyb.6272]

He sure does!

[@Linda-nl6co]

Those are just beautiful 💕

[@christigilbertson5401]

These were all fabulous!!!! Amazing!

[@JohnJames.]

I work with grinders and diamond blades , trimming bathtubs. Just made a table to trim panels, I definitely can make my own rock cutting setup, and my sister hunts agates . Wicked cuts

[@jasonsummit1885]

One type that I'd love to be able to cut would be a copper replacement agate with alternating agate and copper bands.

[@virginiabell7709]

Love the white flame.

[@shellyfoster7319]

They really are amazing. Love to watch. Thanks

[@lovefaith1794]

This video blew me away❤

[@simadey8092]

[@korieshannon9645]

@AgateDad these are incredible! One right after the next was 🔥! My fiancé who’s not really a rockhound like I am watched this with me and he was even in awe! (I don’t know how you can’t be 😮) lol but I love your videos! I am planning to go up to Lake Superior sometime this year. Do you ever cut them for viewers? Anyway keep the great videos coming! They are super entertaining!! 🤩😎

[@gemstonejudy5900]

What a wonderful variety!

[@jamesblake7338]

Awesome! Even lucked out!

[@sherrybriggs5459]

All so beautiful

[@maryseaman312]

Thank you, Evan!

[@judybailey6797]

The last one you cut (teasing us about not showing the cut). I saw a human head profile with an electric charge coming from the spine going up to the brain. You are so fun to watch.

[@kastah]

So much beuties!! Happy new year, and went on going for rockhounding when the snow is gone.

[@gailpeekeekoot6182]

Sooooo satisfying.

[@Mrjoshuasjourneyzzz10420]

Nice!!!!

[@meg2831]

18:22 it's like a psychedelic mushroom. Very cool.

[@kc195556]

I love your playful creative orneryness in this video!

[@chrissiejundt9867]

Marvelous simply beautiful

[@joannparker1977]

I could see me buying this blade and the machine. Would/could put it in my garage. It'd work until summer hits. I live in Central Texas (just outside of Austin). 100+ degree temps for weeks on end - I wouldn't be able to work. Which encompasses at lot of time. Mid-May until the end of September. We typically don't get real fall until the very end October. The leaves don't fall until late November/early December. At least our winters are short. But they can get pretty bad with winter precipitation.

[@MEME-nm8mh]

white flame .... like it

[@cynthiagenone3436]

The last one looks like a mushroom....I love it

[@carmenevans7651]

The ugly one right before you changed the blade is very similar to one I have. I may have to get a saw.

[@anitagroves2731]

❤😊 this was alot of fun to wat h ,thank you ❤😊

[@AgateDad]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@donaldsiehl4817]

Nice video, I'm curious about whether or not there is a market for peices like yours, and the initial start up process...?
