Pretty Agates & mystery rocks cut open on saw!

Happy New Year! I hope you have a phenomenal year!!

[@debidevaney8398]

Happy New Year, Taylor! Can't wait to see all the agates, fossils, and other specimens this year brings😁

[@AgateDad]

@@debidevaney8398going to be a fun year 🤩

[@debidevaney8398]

@AgateDad Yes, it is!!! We're planning to go to Montana and Wyoming this summer to do some hunting on the Yellowstone😁 Just before that we're going to be headed up to Thunder Bay, so we'll be driving thru Duluth at the end of July, and coming back down a few days later🙂 Can't wait to see the Big Water again!!!!

[@MarionJ67]

Happy New year. That one agate looks like a kidney

[@user-ym3jq5bf9v]

Bro, why do you have a rock?

[@peggymckenzie6754]

You are so daring to cut those stones with your fingers so close to the saw. Those stones were very pretty, most of them. Good for you.

[@redwitch12]

It's not like the type of saw blade that you'd use on wood, more of a grinding wheel. Not exactly fun to poke, but it won't take off a finger in the blink of an eye :D

[@user-qr9oc7wo1f]

I worked for a granite quarry (Weymouth Granite) for 43 years. I never get tired of seeing the surprises that nature creates. Beautiful!!!

[@Keriousity]

you make me want a saw because I love even the weird ones!

[@AgateDad]

Do it! linktr.ee/AgateDad

[@roseappleberry]

same, i feel compelled to go find rocks to see whats inside haha

[@marcialander8854]

My brain made so many earrings watching you cut those smaller rocks. Oh my goodness! 😍

[@cynthiaswain4070]

They all may not be agate, but each is beautiful in its own right. I live in the upper most Northern part of CA. Our beaches are covered with agates and other precious and semi precious stones

[@mamm7223]

They were all beautiful but the one you called the "jellybean agate" (I thought it looked like a potato before you cut it) was just amazing!!

[@governmentflu81]

Only a million years in the making. Cool stuff!

[@donnaboyle669]

All of the agates are beautiful, I agree with you, the jellybean agate is amazing, the color, the details are amazing. Unique rock.

[@nancyb1605]

The laundry can wait…..Taylor is cutting some rocks! 😆😆😂. Happy 2024 ❤

[@juliemckelvie2282]

The jellybean would look great with birds etched into the black spots, like birdies in a cherry blossom tree

[@maryseaman312]

10:07. In the quilting world, each of those halves, the banding is doing what we call "quarter square log cabin" ... surprise!

[@billiejofrance2526]

I love the jelly bean agate! 😮❤

[@SGT.BROKEN]

First cuts of the year. I can't wait 💯🔥❤

[@woodworksbysullivan]

Alot of those are cold water agates. I find them along the mississippi down in that area. You can also find drusy quartz crystals and geodes. That is my go to rock hunting area from redwing all the way south of there. I have a 150 pound rock that had drusy quartz crystal and banded cold water agate all through the middle and I used a circular saw and got around ten pieces that weighed around 5 pounds a piece and polished with disc sander pads and put epoxy resin on all of them. Really awesome stuff down there. The stuff down there is alot like the stuff you find at haunted ridge rocks in cadet missouri with different colored drusy quartz.

[@Emily_ofthe_Valley]

Spot on, my property is in Crawford County - right near the Mississippi River 😉

[@marciajohnson6767]

My sister just showed me this site, and I have already subscribed!!! Love this ❤❤❤

[@glenn5903]

Hey Happy New Year. A couple of those would be pretty as a counter top!😂

[@sherronhays7561]

As a fiber artist, I especially love your I don't knows....and then you open the cut and I see my inspiration for my next project. THANKS SO MUCH. I am smiling with all your sharing. Have a wonderful year .

[@andrewwilkins6883]

That 2nd one is banded chert for sure. I’ve collected a lot of that on the Southern tip of Lake Michigan in Indiana. It’s beautiful though!

[@user-hz2xl4co9u]

Man, the tube agate would make some beautiful slabs and cabs 😎

[@ARtandSoul998]

I just came across this channel, and I'm hooked! I love mother nature and I work with all kinds of different painting mediums, these formations in those rocks are works of art in themselves, just stunning patterns and colours that would be difficult to replicate. Thank you for sharing your passion with us!

[@elizabethlewis3509]

Looks like mountains and a ski slope. What a nice surprise.

[@user-hm6bn6kw6k]

This journey inside rocks is a thrill every time. Thank you!

[@Emily_ofthe_Valley]

So cool!! I tried to pick a variety from my buckets! Some I knew had obvious bands and some I just needed to know what the inside looked like. Thank you so much for cutting them for me!! They were cooler than I could have even imagined! Happy new year!!!

[@AgateDad]

They were so fun, thank you so much for sharing with all of us!!

[@junexlolez5806]

Hi emily

[@calebdillman8462]

2nd one reminds me of smoky quartz id find at the beach at North Sea in Scotland. Miss finding the gems there when I lived over there.

[@AddictedToAgates]

Yeah that one with all the colorful tubes is AMAZING!! 😮

[@patriciakaufmann2229]

What a fun group of beautiful rocks!!!

[@robinsmith3719]

Yup. Definitely the jellybean agate was the best.

[@dawnwilkinson8717]

Thank you Emily and Happy New Year to you Agate Dad and to your family too. Thank you Agate Dad for all the wonderful videos you produced in 2023 an here's to more epic finds and cuts in 2024.

[@lindastephens619]

They're all very pretty

[@sharonwells9593]

Happy New Year. When I first saw thoe agates in your hand there were 2 that made me think of Brussel Sprouts.

[@lauraschulz5209]

I love watching you, you get so excited when you get to cut open cool stones. We are moving to Michigan and can’t wait to go rock hounding!!!

[@cindyrebstock2334]

The black and white agate, I believe it was in the second batch was so odd. One half was brownish and the other half blue! Funky Happy New Year!

[@coventrywildeheart7108]

Happy New Year from tropical north Queensland, Australia. I really love your vids and look forward to each reveal. Thanks.

[@AgateDad]

Happy new year! Thanks for watching:)

[@kimberlymorris2998]

Also from SW Wisconsin... great way to start the New Year.

[@AgateDad]

Absolutely!

[@dgutie8]

Beautiful colors!!

[@steveegbert7429]

That jelly bean tube one might be worth taking another slice and doing some cabs. I think they'd be really pretty. When I first got my saw, I used a single edge razor blade to peel the red paint off the blade before I ever used it. It came off really easy.

[@debidevaney8398]

Absolutely beautiful!!!

[@lisamills-wv6nc]

Happy New Year to you and your family, Taylor! Thank you Emily for sharing, and thank you Taylor for cutting them! I can watch your cutting videos all day! They are so exciting! 😊

[@nitawynn9538]

I don’t think I can pick a favorite. So many are beautiful. Happy New Year to you and your family. 🎉🎈🎊✨

[@joelefaivre3095]

Happy New Year A.D. that was a great showing of the cut rocks.

[@gailarnold2660]

I always love these videos. I love each one and the surprises are so FUN!

[@ukulelia56]

Happy New Year dear Agate Dad and merci for the beautiful cuts

[@sandmaker]

Cut, cut, cut. The best way to start a new year😊 I loved them all. Happy new year!

[@amandajo1013]

Very cool stuff! I love hearing you get excited about nonagates too. Almost all rocks so gorgeous!

[@willlinke2849]

First one looks like a kidney

[@deadrahwilson7641]

I thought the same thing 😊

[@billiejofrance2526]

The tube one looks like popcorn lungs! Lol

[@mandypoo82]

I thought that too! 😅

[@chrisberry9017]

Me me three!

[@kathynichols8389]

That was my first thought.

[@danaberger7809]

Awesome finds. Thanks for sharing.

[@amberandrews6842]

Happy New Year!! Fantastic pretty rocks! I just love pretty rocks!!!

[@Patrickroche1]

The one st 7:40 is crazy, tube agate, you should make slab of it and polishing it

[@CARNELIANTURQUOISE]

Fun! I really enjoy your channel, its kind of relaxing to watch!

[@AgateDad]

Glad you enjoy it!

[@EvanTietz]

Happy new year yall! May you all have luck on your rock hounding adventures this year! This was such a fun video to watch

[@joanrieser2580]

What a fantastic video. I love the surprises inside!

[@kristibbradshaw]

I love watching you cut these stones.

[@maryseaman312]

6:51 I would say there is a lot of life and action going on in that stone when it was formed .... so fun

[@sophiafulgenzi9937]

Beautiful work 🪨🪨🪨 😍!!! Happy New Year🎉🎉🎉

[@outlawmineralgroupusa]

[@AgateDad]

Happy new year!

[@E.o.t.4637]

Happy New Year AgateDad and family! The tubes are totally tubular 😂 Hope everyone has a fab new year!

[@AgateDad]

Happy new year!

[@madelainvidaurri732]

This video was so fun!!! The little purple one is pretty!

[@markjorgensen3179]

Southwestern Wisconsin is the driftless area. The glaciers didn't make it to this area so it' has a lot of chert and Galena and other lead ores can be found in the area. LSA's can be found near the Mississippi river. Also Calcite can be found there. Lead used to be mined in the area. There is a mining museum in Platteville and Cave of the Mounds National Natural landmark near Madison.

[@sherrybriggs5459]

Happy New Year. 🎉🎉 I think they're all very unique

[@patriciakaufmann2229]

Happy New Year to you and your family!!!

[@AgateDad]

Same to you!

[@paulabrandt3922]

I live in wisc and never found agates like these!!! Fabulous, unique@

[@Ch3rryBomb769]

Awesome video and beautiful specimens!! I’m looking forward to following your adventures for 2024!!

[@3New6Horizons9]

Happy New Year to you too 🥂🎉✨🎊 The quartz from minute 7:17 is great 🥰 I love quartz 🥰 Aventurin is my favorite. But the Jelly Bean Agate is really great 😋👍 Greetings from Germany 🥰

[@The7608]

Happy New Year still enjoying all you posts. They were really cool.

[@AgateDad]

[@josephdegail4678]

Cool to see some WI agates on your channel! Let's go Taylor!

[@larcher248]

Love it ! Love it !! Love it !!!

[@CedarStoneCreations]

That grey one definitely looks like the banded chert we have in the Dakotas, that last one was awesome too!

[@Nikkisavage100]

Happy new year, nice agates & jaspes

[@deniseview4253]

Oh, there are many I think are very pretty.

[@Reet64]

Happy new year to you!

[@AgateDad]

🎆

[@sealaryn]

8:00 almost reminds me of picture jasper

[@glenn5903]

Tumble rocks!😊

[@elizabethlewis3509]

Like your " chert agate hybrid"

[@savagesquirrel9828]

The cc said, “just kill Sydney”. LOL. Nice video. I wish I had a saw! Soon Happy New Year, and Thanks!

[@Soheilastone]

Very nice 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@irisc1851]

Thanks for all the fun cutting videos! Have you ever cut possible agates/small geodes from eastern central Kentucky?

[@patriciamckean4186]

Lovely jellybean is "tubular"! My fave! That wide band one looks like a fossil?!?!

[@pedrasdeminasgerais.]

Thank you, very nice , Congruations

[@kathywhite4547]

Happy New Year

[@eugenieroyce3312]

That last big might be fossilized coral or sponge. I think you love rocks as much as l do. I grew up in the higher altitudes of the Colorado Rockies

[@user-kn5vn7oy8q]

Happy New Year all❤🎉

[@MissLalabelle]

I don't know what the yellow and blue rock is, but it's gorgeous! It almost reminds me of impressionist paintings

[@PlanetaryLapidary]

Yellow one looks like a lot of Stromatoporoids that I cut…Happy New Year!

[@nadjatalidrissi8355]

❤❤❤

[@janehelbert7551]

I liked the jelly bean agate.

[@shawnglass8266]

The second to last one looks like a ninja turtle face to me. 😂

[@kellyhollingsworth6100]

1:33 banded chert is my guess, 6:58 looks like a jasper quartz mix almost like a thunderegg.15:03 I think is hematoid quartz, a lot of tubes in the large stone. There is a little plus sign at 15:04 right side. 15:00 may be chert also. Just fun no matter what.
