[@Mike-br8vb]

The depth is just so incredible! Nice polish man!

[@AgateDad]

Truly!

[@Stambo21]

I bought my 10" and am setting it up tonight! Once I get the hang of it I will try to post a video or at least pics. I am down in Milwaukee so I collect off of Lake Michigan

[@mysticdolphin69]

The 2nd one is my favorite

[@nicolejones58]

Love the second orange agate! 🧡 Great video Taylor! Love your cutting and polishing content, thanks for sharing!

[@sixthsenseamelia4695]

😋🧡Omgosh, orangelicious!

[@NheilBryanPerocho-vg6rl]

Dude this is not food 🤣 don't be imagine that. it just a gemstone agate that juicy gems

[@jonathonlafave3698]

FR 😍🌍👑

[@joang.cavanna2046]

I like the second agate the best. I love the laciness and banding of the organic stuff on the edges.Thanks for sharing.

[@tashacano3324]

I wonder if cabbing that yellow one would make the bands stand out more? These came out so gorgeous!

[@AgateDad]

Maybe!

[@nildamarquez9946]

I love the one with the orange colors. Blessings 🙏🥰

[@dawnwilkinson8717]

Number two is my favourite Thank you for sharing.

[@518hs]

Beautiful! I love the depth!

[@JnVrockhounding]

I think sometimes you see more in person than comes through on video so I like the second one best. I love it when you can see so much depth. You can imagine what it looked like inside before it was cut. I don’t have any condor agates yet. Might have to do something about that.

[@406findings]

I like the second one you cut and polished with the orange on it 🧡

[@AgateDad]

Same!

[@jayburkhart1781]

#1 was a winner out the gate. extremely beautiful. #2 i think if you could slab that so light could come thru that it would gleam. i see greenish in it. #3 the second part of it, the bottom red color looks to be sliding down and into the right of the stone, like a mini wave curl? make sorta sense? that part is super sick to see it do that curve in it. again, your so lucky

[@amandajo1013]

That last one polished is one of the most beautiful agates I've ever seen! Just wow!

[@kathywiseman7944]

Beautiful. The middle one with that orange band.

[@deniseview4253]

The 3rd one you cut is my favorite and the polish made it more beautiful. The other have their beauty too.

[@barbaralawrence784]

Loved the second one the depth and half circle on the edge stunning

[@michelleralls4435]

I'm totally mesmerized by the beautiful orange.

[@meg2831]

The second one you polished was my favorite. I just loved the way the colors faded the way they did.

[@AgateDad]

Same, such good colors!

[@MrJudder413]

5:08 quick and painful 😂😂 They came out awesome 👌

[@AgateDad]

That is NOT what I meant 🤣🤣🤣

[@tonis204]

You CAUGHT it!!!❤❤😂😂

[@MrJudder413]

@@AgateDad I know I'm just giving ya a hard time. Awesome video man. Love the channel!

[@E.o.t.4637]

Love love love the colors! That orange? LOVE it! I even love the yellow! I call that one the shadow dancer! lol

[@SissyMchill1]

Absolutely stunning beautiful. Sorry, I just say the same few words. I can’t help it. Only words fitting for rocks, agates. My favorite was 2nd rock polished, 3rd rock polished then 1st rock polished. Was very surprised with how much more detail came out on the 1st rock that you polished. Very subtle beauty.

[@joanrieser2580]

Sssooo beautiful!!! The detail is excellent inside that first one

[@judieahmed98]

Wow! The shine on that second stone was absurd!

[@kellyhollingsworth6100]

Fine example that the outside even if there are bands does not always equate to the inside, rocks are cool. Happy hounding.

[@AgateDad]

Yupp

[@patriciamckean4186]

Condor agates are awesome. Thanks for sharing.

[@AgateDad]

Yes they are!

[@robinsmith3719]

I love the second one. Stunning.

[@dianequince8761]

Loved all 3, but my favorites follow yours, the last then the second and I still love the first. Great video again. Thanks 👍

[@homeiswheremycatsare]

Okay, I just wanted to put my 2 cents in sometimes I'd like to say a comment on the video I really like the first egg because it looks like a lake. The edge of it looks like a little edge of the lake, you know, it's got a real nice sharp, clean look around the edges and it just looks like a lake where you could just see down to the bottom of the lake. Clear water clear to the bottom of the lake. It just looks like water to me. It's so pretty, I really do like the first one.

[@marcimarcimarci5101]

I love everything about your channel. And I very much enjoy when you are unintentionally funny... like in this one, around 5:07 .... "quick and painful..." Keep up the great work!

[@judieahmed98]

Thanks for another great video Agate Dad!

[@AgateDad]

My pleasure!

[@JaneAllen-b8y]

Keep doing what you’re doing Taylor, your videos are great.

[@FieldsOfGold149]

Stunning pieces with super polishing thanks

[@AgateDad]

Thanks!

[@patriciakaufmann2229]

That last one is beautiful!!!

[@АндрійФратовчан-ц5е]

Wonderful video! Can you show how you make finished cabochon and approximately how much it will be costs. Thank you for your job or hobby, I don't know, but thank you again!

[@davidgarcia8537]

i would cut a slice from them to see them back lit, they look awesome, i miss cutting cabs

[@janettetippetts7942]

All of them are SO Beautiful!

[@KayInMaine]

Beautiful! Looks like you already sold them all. Congratulations! ❤

[@DrJ4712]

Incredible agates! The orange/green one turned out to be beautiful! My favorites are the flaming ones!🔥 And of course, the last one was a banger! 😊❤

[@lachlanadderley2001]

aww i missed our favourite Dad :( but ill be sure too watch the replay in the morning, thanks for streaming always love watching your channel, catch up soon mate x

[@MrMagilla2006]

wow beautiful! i missed out on the sells . i'll try again another time.

[@lynnrandal317]

Oh my goodness the final results look amazing!😮

[@colleenlinke4208]

That last agate was INCREDIBLE!!!!!!!!

[@AgateDad]

I agree!

[@california3186]

I liked that middle one. It reminds of honeycomb. Pretty!!

[@Debbie4729]

I have taken to cutting slices of my rocks,especially the Thundereggs. One rock will yield amazing slices with each cut,and the subtle ones get more light through them,so that the colors and banding are more evident.

[@alli6791]

Ahh that green and yellow agate, the color was so beautiful, but the last one (you cut) was my favorite

[@AgateDad]

Such a pretty agate!

[@KayInMaine]

That's my favorite color green 😎

[@sarahlong52]

This was such a good video though I love the condor agates was wondering if you had any videos on blue lace agate and the cutting polishing process

[@gracewashburn8276]

I actually like the one with the orange in it with the heavy orange lights are on the outside. Oh that’s pretty.

[@amandajo1013]

I think you should make slices on that second one. I have to wonder if you just missed an inner core spot. Such beauty colors!

[@roxannsejkora1691]

SOOO beautiful! ❤

[@janehelbert7551]

The second one is still my favorite!

[@lisamills-wv6nc]

I bet your fingers are really sore! The 2nd one you polished is my favorite! So gorgeous, colorful, and that shadowing! You always do a beautiful job cutting and polishing! I really like Condor agates after watching this video! 😊

[@Cristina-vd7lg]

Awesome video,, love what you bring for us to see.😊

[@Orangatangerine]

Would love to see a slab and cab of that green agate 🤘 awesome agates all around

[@susietincknellsmith653]

The last is my favorite!

[@elainelear4982]

Wow, gorgeous stones.

[@AgateDad]

They are!

[@marysmith7845]

I admit, my favorite is the very subtle agate followed by the orange one…. I find the subtle agate to be very mesmerizing..❤

[@AgateDad]

I’m glad you like it!

[@dorissanders9543]

I love the second one!

[@ManfiCat]

I found my first ever agate in Australia. It isn't very spectacular and it is small enough for me to get scared of using the saw on it, so I sanded it instead. What beautiful agates you have over in America!

[@SRLGemstone]

3:14 It was really a beautiful agate. Thanks for the nice video.

[@AgateDad]

Glad you liked it!

[@amandajo1013]

Wow! The last one!!

[@JudyOlson-e1t]

My favorite is number two. But, all are great!

[@janehelbert7551]

Wow, you did save the best for the last!

[@chrissiejundt9867]

All 3 of them are my favorite

[@spetkovsek57]

Nice Condors. I would have cut cabs from the orange one. Good job.

[@keithcunningham7925]

I do like the orange one pretty cool

[@Emma-dl5ez]

Just beautiful ❤️

[@sherrybriggs5459]

Beautiful ❤

[@ManfiCat]

How do you cut very small agates?

[@AgateDad]

With my very small saw ☺️

[@angelarose3121]

The 2nd is my favorite ❤

[@CelticDruidess1]

If you cut the yellow/green one the other direction, would it possibly show up the bands better?

[@AgateDad]

Probably not but who knows

[@patriciakaufmann2229]

Green and yellow, still pretty!!!

[@lydiaflatt9859]

Loved these!

[@rosemaryreed1226]

I love the topaz or tiger eye colored one

[@clannishkobra8965]

On the second one that was yellow those tight bands would show up great if you slabbed it 8th inch thick it looks similar to banding on Montana Iris agates.

[@-hw-]

very pretty

[@pamelanay2195]

Beautiful 😊

[@JodeeDeemHall]

Love the orange

[@ricks2907]

Love those condors. Thanks buddy cheers Ricky 🙏💥🎸👩🏻‍🦼🇺🇸🐈‍⬛🔥

[@vickicook3094]

Loved the 1st one, but then to compared to the other 2 ... They are on different plains. Like apples to oranges. (Just something about that 1st one)

[@CarolynMcPherson-r3z]

I am reminded of a Victorian theatre with green velvet draperies and gold braid. Gorgeous! Please don't remove the husk! Ooops! Glancing downward see I may be too late.

[@drea6514]

um espetaculo , uma pedra mais incrivel que a outra

[@MDM324]

#2 was my fav.

[@janehelbert7551]

Polishing the bland one did make a difference!

[@AgateDad]

I agree!

[@glenn5903]

OMG ! Number 3!!!

[@judywhisenant1483]

Totally Awesome.

[@DavidAllen-i5g]

Your favorite one is my favorite also, looks like a pair of shoes. David in Texas USA

[@meg2831]

The subtle one made me think of space with little sun bursts

[@Kaymarie660]

What model is your Cabking? Love your videos!

[@hollynoelleAbductedUfologist]

Just amazing. Shared.

[@AgateDad]

Thanks for sharing!!

[@wavydavy9816]

Hi. Noob here. Is there a reason you don't take a slice off each, or out of the middle, as well as having the two halves? A friend of mine has an awesome collection and some of the most beautiful pieces are the slices, the light shines right through them 🤗 Some of them look almost edible 😋 Great video. Thanks.

[@kimdedominicis6893]

Just curious why you don’t use your flat lap on these face polishes?

[@AgateDad]

I have a cabking

[@NheilBryanPerocho-vg6rl]

My god the gems agate so beautiful imagine that its was bigger and more jewelry slab and polished

[@DurpVonFronz]

Have you tried any of the Crater Agates from Argentina yet? Those are some of the craziest looking out there imo!

[@AgateDad]

I haven’t even heard of those!

[@Treasurehunter4life20]

How do u determine which direction to cut ?

[@gabiilleslajosne363]

Gyönyörűek ❤

[@evamarie5024]

What shall we call them, 🤔 Aygats, Agates, or Egats,...I'm just expanding on the dialect we all use. I'm a hill billy from West Virginia so we usually go with the lesser of the three which is Agates. You are one of my favs! I enjoy what you find or buy, only to slice them to find out really lies beneath the surface. It's an entirely different world!!

[@AgateDad]

I think we should call them agates and talk how you naturally talk.

[@grokeffer6226]

Nice!!!

[@susietincknellsmith653]

Wow!

[@AgateDad]
