Hi I just ordered some tobasco geodes and I have no idea how to open them. Could you give me some ideas

[@TheGeodeGuys]

Sorry just saw this! If you don't have a rock saw with a really thin blade my next best advice would be to push them all into some clay or plumbers putty and cut them one at a time with a diamond cut off wheel on a Dremel (spraying with water to keep cool).

@@TheGeodeGuys I have a 10” saw. There are thin blades for that ? I’m sorry I’m learning .

@@lorettamartinez2144 yes indeed! Check Kingsley North or Arrowhead lapidary for thin 10" diamond blades. Just make sure you get the proper size arbor for your saw!

How do you score it? I think i found my first geode i wasn't looking for anything i just saw a rock on the ground that is pretty round probably 4 inches in diameter maybe 5 inches and I'm praying it's a geode and that God is answering a prayer. All i have is a hammer and a chisel but the video never showed how to score it.

Hey Abby we have another video telling how to score with a Dremel on our KZbin page. But basically the easiest way is with a Dremel with a diamond cutoff wheel. It should be under our education videos section.
