I turned ROUGH nodules into POLISHED gemstones!

Check out our Etsy store where these and many more agates are listed! linktr.ee/AgateDad

I see butterflies wings in the the that cracking. Beautiful

[@muziknurd]

The one around 6 minutes that broke apart, the 2 halves look like a butterfly and I absolutely love the color combo! I get so much backlash for saying agates are the most beautiful of all gemstones. My engagement ring is a BEAUTIFUL moss agate. But no 2 are ever the same and the patterns and colors are OUTSTANDING. 😍😍😍

[@kastah]

Those Agat babies had a B E U T I F U L pattern. (almost all) At 12, looked like gold-pieces inside in one end. Even that I am a Jasper-lover, I did LOVE those patterns in the Agatas.

[@nobody7765]

Anyone ever tell you that you sound what I’d imagine a young Santa would sound like? It lightens a bad mood listening to you enjoy what you do.

[@KittyKeypurr]

We gasped more than once today! Beautiful!

[@janethuffman5280]

The third from the last looked like a cave with a fire burning. They are all gorgeous!!!

[@AgateDad]

So pretty!

[@dianeriegel839]

Beautiful, just Beautiful, and the last one is my favorite !!! And you know which one that is 😊

[@melodyfaith7712]

Yesterday I went to the G & LW show in Livonia and bought a bag of these. I mentioned your video and she said she would give you your commission. I am really excited to cut these.

[@AgateDad]

That’s so awesome! She’s the best!

[@LonelyFarmerScythe]

I absolutely love the colors in the Malawi agates. Thanks for sharing.

[@AgateDad]

Same!

[@patriciamckean4186]

Most of them were gorgeous. The depth of those colors, I loved the vibrant orange it was unbelievable! A small that would be great earrings.

[@lisamills-wv6nc]

I'm really liking Malawi agates after watching your videos! The last one you cut is super gorgeous! Then, after polishing, it's phenomenal! Wow! Wow! Wow! Love it! 😊

[@sheilafranklin186]

Absolutely stunning!! Thank you for sharing the process and the beautiful results with us.

[@banjobradley3644]

Massive cred to you dude for wholesome viewing without dodgy language. Bless you dude

[@marcialoofboro306]

It is so amazing what you found inside the agates, such beauty and different patterns. Such wonders of nature. I liked the yellow and orange banded one best.

[@eugeniascott4762]

I can hear the joy in your laugh ,and see the fun your having.

[@AgateDad]

So much fun and joy ❤

[@deniseview4253]

All are beautiful. The last one is my favorite it’s absolutely gorgeous.

[@mariemoss2475]

Your best Agate I would have definitely kept... I dont think you will ever see another one like it. They were all AMAZING polished up, probably one of your best cutting/polishing videos you have done 😊

[@gailarnold2660]

3:57 !! I was eating Candy Corn at the time you opened that candy corn colored one! WOW I have never seen one like that ! Love that one.

[@AgateDad]

Totally looked like that!

[@WorldofRockhounds]

You got some outstanding pieces! Now I have a hankering to cut some more that I have stashed away! I cut a few a while back and the colors/patterns are stunning. I think some of those colors are perfect for Rockober!

[@danaberger7809]

Absolutely beautiful agates...thanks for sharing your Agate cutting and polishing..

[@savagechildcreations]

I love the cutting/reveal videos! These are so much fun to cut!

[@nildamarquez9946]

The last 2 cuts are my favorite, but there were 2 other small ones with the red center that I liked. After polished there were beautiful. Blessings 🥰❤️👍

[@lizzymoore54]

Many for the tumbler, Agate Dad. The rest are so beautiful! You never can tell until you cut them, can you ? Loving the 3rd from the last and the last one of the 70’s dig and a few of the babies too! I know this is so hard on your hands, you may want to look into a pair of spandex gloves worn for arthritis. These will put just enough pressure on your hands to protect the joints of your hands. I think they have flesh, black or gray colored gloves and you may be able to cut the ends off so that you have some freedom for your fingertips. ❤

[@lorigesch1295]

That last one was phenomenal, but the agate babies were the most fun to watch you cut open. The little butterscotch really does look like candy. ❤

[@colleenlinke4208]

THAT LAST GIANT AGATE IS BEYOND GORGEOUS!!!!!!

[@debidevaney8398]

Taylor, those are INSANE little gems! I love watching these cutting vids🥰 Thank you for sharing God's beauty❤

[@AgateDad]

Absolutely!

[@cherieblizzard9585]

It is your attitude that really makes this so enjoyable. Your absolute joy.

[@AgateDad]

❤️❤️❤️

[@janettetippetts7942]

Holy WOW! Those are all GORGEOUS! How fun for you! Can't pick just one favorite....

[@АндрійФратовчан-ц5е]

Very wonderful stone!!! This colors are amazing! 👏👏

[@E.o.t.4637]

The small one with that beautiful orange🧡and yellow with the micro geo in it? LOVED IT! BTW??? 1970? Great year! I think it's time to get out of the tub Taylor! Your poor fingers are so pruned lol 😂 AND what a perfect split on the last one! WOW White only on 1 side! Nice job!

[@mandypoo82]

The ones with the orange and yellow in them are my favorites!

[@mariemoss2475]

Amazing... What an array of colours. Outstandingly beautiful 👍😍😍😍😍😍

[@nancyb1605]

🐝what an exciting video Taylor….you just never know what’s inside those rocks 😂 ❤ ❤❤

[@AgateDad]

Right?

[@infopubs]

The ones with the bright oranges in them are my favorites! Stunning batch!

[@lethawelch6353]

Wow! Totally unexpected . Never heard of Malawi Agates... what a treat! I have not been to the Gem Shop in likely 15 years... when we moved from the area. Dang!

[@joeljeffery8704]

Sooo many beautiful agates! That last one took my breath away.

[@AgateDad]

Same!

[@naminaoberhausen2131]

Very beautiful rocks. Love the inside of the rocks. Agates are really cool. Liked. Thanks for sharing. From Jordan

[@teresamcfadden2414]

The depth of these are amazing

[@mightyfetheredone]

I think the one at 19:54 is my favorite. The refractions in the center were just so beautiful!💎 This was an awesome bunch of cuts with a great variety. Even some of the duds had nice colors! The big finale was so pretty. At 16:37 it made me think of Majora's Mask, but with a wink😉 What a showstopper! Great video & thanks for sharing!🪨💖

[@abbyW]

20:05 my favorite. I would love to have one of those babies wire wrapped into a pendant!

[@darrinwilliams5715]

The cut on the last big one was perfect. There were a bunch really good agates in that lot of smalls. There were some duds to, but over all great agates and great video.😎😎

[@pockets-full-of-stones]

Blown away by all the color and patter variations.

[@melindawhite5198]

I love watching these beautiful cuts. Thank you

[@keithcunningham7925]

Frickin amazing love those malawi agates my favorite is the last baby and the big one amazing

[@AgateDad]

They’re so beautiful!

[@odettehillier3387]

That was an awesome session of cutting and polishing. Thank you for sharing ❤and definitely the last one is my favourite 😍.

[@donnaboyle669]

You have some spectacular specimens. I thoroughly enjoyed this video. I watch just to hear your enthusiasm. Thank you for these awesome videos.

[@CheckOutBushy]

Some bloody rippers there mate! Those yellow, white and orange ones are 🔥☺️🙏

[@AgateDad]

Yes they are!

[@endrymargam7863]

As an Indonesian, I am very happy to see this stone, especially as it can be used to decorate rings and pendants, what a shame😊

[@daniellegibson9390]

I absolutely love the fire band one its so beautiful and the last one looks like a thermal imaging the one side(solid red side)looks like a person sitting on the floor with their legs up to their chest and the head is upwards

[@JTleaf]

That’s it. I’m down an AgateDad rabbit hole. I must have watched five hours of your content in the last two days. And counting.

[@AgateDad]

That’s awesome! Thanks!

[@JTleaf]

@@AgateDad You’re welcome! I’ll let you know if I find any Western Washington Agates 😉

[@janehelbert7551]

The last intermediate agate was my favorite of those.

[@sueerickson4849]

Love me some agates! Been spending my summer agate hunting up on Lake Superior. I’ve found so many!

[@divineinhalewithdonnacliff8112]

You are my new anxiety and ash’s relief. 😂😂😂. Keep the laughing coming!

[@BeccaBeeMe]

Gorgeous stones!! Thanks for sharing them with us!! 💕 Can't wait for your next Rock Hound Hunt and Reveal!! ☺️

[@awake-77]

last one was my favorite! All so beautiful ❤

[@Woo-kg6xz]

Wow almost every single one is breathtaking!!!

[@susie5710]

So some were duds but the others were phenomenal! The one with the white ribbon bands that you could see in 3D just so amazing! Thanks!

[@benjaminrapp7418]

Those were amazing! It's impossible to pick a favorite. Even the duds looked awesome to me. You should have a little something in your PO Box tomorrow. 😉

[@elizabethlewis3509]

The agate that broke apart is still amazing. Looks like butterfly wings

[@dohraime140]

Phew! Been binge watching you cut open agates. Addictive viewing! Thanks for taking the time to film & edit the process. Quite laborious for you but you obviously love it. I couldn’t help but notice the shirt you were wearing at the end of this video. Do you call it an agate shirt?!! 😄

[@joang.cavanna2046]

Those nodules are amazing! You make such great videos. Thanks for sharing.

[@janehelbert7551]

The red and white tiny one was my favorite!

[@bec1036]

It's Australia Day here and I'm binging your videos today. I subbed to your channel as well! Love your work! Some really beautiful little pieces there 💟

[@susandevoe6002]

So what do u do with them afterwards?? Or, what do other ppl do with them then after buying them from your Etsy store??? Use them for paperweights? Do you ever cut slices for pendants??? Then just drill a hole in them for hanging/stringing?? The smaller ones, if it's even possible to thinly slice them without losing a finger or 2, if you put a hole in each end the slices would be great for bracelets!! So pretty!!

[@meg2831]

Oh man those babies with the orange are so freaking pretty! Like fire 🔥

[@johnnygary5666]

Beautiful cuts today, so many bursts of colors

[@AgateDad]

Yes they are!

[@pamstevens6991]

Wow, crazy good

[@AgateDad]

Thanks!

[@missy3609]

I love your energy during the reveals :) So many beautiful stones, I love them all lol.

[@josephthibodeaux1010]

That is so awesome, thank you again for sharing.

[@ruhsexperimentsgliesperimentid]

I hope you cut the hard part of the small piece of the second big Malawi agate and polish it, it will became a nice "tumbled stone" for someone that like to have some small crystals inside the pockets, as I do.

[@watutokBatuakik]

The agate material is extraordinary, friend 👍👍

[@janehelbert7551]

The second tiny one was really nice!

[@kimevans9338]

I would like to know what you do with these at the next step!! These are SO interesting! I've just started making jewelry and this is AWESOME!

[@TheLoonlady]

If you can take the time, would you please explain the "1970 dig "? I know you aren't that old. LOL Thanks so much that last one is SPECTACULAR !

[@loridreamer6344]

Absolutely gorgeous pieces!

[@divineinhalewithdonnacliff8112]

Omg the neon ❤❤❤❤❤

[@janehelbert7551]

The polished ones were amazing!

[@janehelbert7551]

The biggest one was my absolute favorite!

[@CyntheaAnderson]

Love that last one!

[@HopeLoveMatters]

I would love to see some back lightning on a few of those agates

[@joanthompson8586]

What a treat! Thank you

[@AgateDad]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@enriquepuga7864]

It's the saws vibration. It's offset. Remember resonance, sound can break your rocks

[@melindadavis3411]

Love seeing them under the macrolens.

[@viktorshevtsov3749]

В этом обзоре, много хороших камней, но последний - шедевр! Поздравляю, счастливчик !

[@bloodchan]

Beautiful agates! Thanks for sharing your hard work! Do you have a video on how you clean your saws and cab king after use?

[@AgateDad]

I usually just wipe them down but not every time, they’re pretty clean usually
