If this video made you crack up, hit that LIKE button!!
I don’t math well either. Lol
I see what you did there.
Yeah rotf 😂😂😂. Ya need to tighten up those arm muscles…that gave you away! Bc a lb of agates looks harder for you to hold than a lb of cookies. A pound is a pound is a pound. Looks like a Mummy Butt with some green algae on the exterior 🍑.
That bluish agate would make great cabs…a bluish butt….I guess I could PAINT it!! #DADA
Well, what is heavier? A pound 😊f feathers or a pound of agates? 😂
@@TreeMonsterrrr 🤣
The opening was peak dad humor, keep it up Taylor! 😂
They were all beautiful but I love the bands on the first one so much
😂🙌
Agate Dad's bubbling laughter is the best stress reliever you can get for free. I always feel so cheerful after i watch him share his agate love with us.
That is seriously so nice!!
@@AgateDad Toss out your Prozack and Zoloft! Just watch Agate Dad for a happy day!
Oh my god the container weight and your enthusiasm is the reason I watch your content. Butt (he he) the double bubble left me laughing louder than you!! It reminds me of the other agate you cut and its end results left you laughing 😂Love it all ❤
😂
I know some may think I’m stupid but if these were cut in thin slices and then had acrylic poured on them they would make amazing drink coasters.
Before I had a polishing system I did that and made sun catchers with the slabs.
I really like the slab idea
Great idea
Do you really need acrylic to make coasters? They’re rocks, they’re pretty tough!
Nope, not stupid at all 🙂
i think i liked the first one the best. the way the bands followed the pattern into the interior. Lovely. Also you laughing like a mad scientist was bonus. Cheers.
I would love to see a video of you cutting these into thin slabs!
Yes!!!
Thank you Taylor for making my morning!! You are so funny!! Best sense of humor!! And the last one is my fav!!
Agate-got-back... too funny! But anyway... each of the three cuts was unique and special and my fav was the third cut... the double-bubble. Another great video that brightened my day immensely.
The first one is my favorite. Nice pattern and very elegant colors . Love your presentation. From EU, best regards and thanks
I love watching you cut these stones and your laugh of excitement is awesome. I have no favorites i love all rocks and i like seeing them cut. I also like the hunts you go on. May your future be bright and positive with many adventures from texas
Yes I sure did crack up, watched the antics twice 😂 I was expecting a box full !!! The second one is my favourite
This just reminded me that I bought some agates too (shopping as I'm getting ready to sleep) and I should probably see where they are at! 😂
Stunning 😍! Thank you for sharing 😊
Your humor is fantastic 🤣👍But I'm shocked at how much the Brazilians cost in the USA. In Germany, they are low-cost agates, which are mostly only used for industry because of their simple appearance.
200$ well spent! Love the third one but they’re all impressive!
I wouldn’t have been able to resist cutting along the butt crack of the double bubble.🍑
That was really some good acting 😂 I believed it was really heavy! 😊
Watching the agates being cut and seeing the secrets they have inside was magical. The three agates were absolutely worth the money. I could not choose a favorite because they are each a different kind of beautiful. I really hope you will show them after they are polished.
If you bake Brazilian agate at around 400 - 500 degrees it will turn from blue to orange to red hues depending on how long you bake it for. I cut my slabs to desired thickness then layer them in clean sand and bake for a few hours to desired color.
You're quite the entertainer Taylor! Thoroughly enjoyed this video especially the math part...hilarious! My favorite is the last one!
All 3 were beautiful but i think I love the last one best, then the second one which is beautiful too, they all are, I love your enthusiasm and your sense of humor, it's amazing to be able to cut open geodes and other rocks to see what is inside, that's the thrill of it, I love it!! Love from east TN here!!! 🎉😅❤🎉🎉❤😅😊
Woo Hooooo! The double bubble agate looks like a VW Bug when cut open! Stunning and whimsical. My favorite of this cutting session.
Came for the rock inwards, stayed for your pure, excited happiness! I have no idea what you're saying 1/2 the time but I love to hear it anyway!!!
Yep the bubble butt agate was the best one but my second fave was I believe the first one where one half looked like a candle flame so pretty. The opening was hilarious and that was super convincing you need to be acting lol. You're hilarious and still love your laugh.
The second one, for sure. I like the idea of piercing through the atmosphere! A slice of that with a light behind it. Your eye would be drawn to it as you walked in the room. ❤
AgateDad, your videos have inspired me, a rock collector of 6 decades (literally) to cut my rocks and I have been doing that thing. So here is a question though: how do you decide which direction to cut? In the video you referenced that cutting one of those agates in one direction made you feel funny, and I can relate to this. So i guess part of it is experience that leads to intuition? Are there other general ways to at least make an educated guess? I have a ton of agates and other material I have picked up in Mexico and I just don't want to ruin them. I'd love to buy some agate nodules to practice on before getting brave with the stuff I've collected in places I won't be going back to. Do you have recommendations for reliable sources for smallish agate nodules? (Afraid I'm not ready to spring 200$ on the big stuff when I'm not sure about myself yet.)
"Agate got back" 😂🤣
I'm so glad you cut across the crack; I was hoping you would. Your videos always have me laughing with pure joy. Don't ever stop giggling. ✌️
Another great video - so much beauty hidden from the world - thanks for opening it all up for us!
The third one was my favorite.But they were all beautiful.Thank you for letting me watch. I have always been very interested in seeing them cut. I would like to see more.
The last agate was the butt-end of all the jokes,but so amazing. I would never have ASSumed that it could be so wonderful!
impressive cuts! first one for sure, imo. when it comes to brazilian agates and colours id like bahia agates more - even if they are smaller. the bigger ones always are grey/blueish colored. thanks for uploading, have a nice day y' all. 👍🏻
Love your humor!
I bet you were very Shocked when you opened the package 😂
This video made me like....Smile!
They Are Beautiful! Loved Watching!
💙🌏💚🌎💚🌍💙
The first agate is lovely! The second one is even prettier. The third is so huge, what a big boy! It's gorgeous! And I enjoy your music choices!
Love the 2nd one!
You are so cute! I love your videos and you really have me interested in Rock hounding. I retired and I’m always wondering what to do with myself. You have given me purpose. Thanks for the laugh! Have a happy day!!
Love how the firat one looks like a perfect water drop. Would love to get one
The last one for sure
Ngl you had us in the first half haha
😂
Gotta wonder if Father Time screamed when you cut his Nads .lol
Love love your humor! Agate got back? Haaahahaaahaa! I actually guffawed 🤣 God bless you and yours !
That last one is a bingo bango Brazilian booty beauty!! Can't pick a fave since each is so unique! Nice cutting 🎉
Wow! I love all 3. Just when I think I have picked a favorite, then I look at the other 2 and change my mind! So all 3 are huge winners!
I think the $200 was worth it. I also think those would make phenomenal slabs.
Your channel is so uplifting! Just what’s needed to inject some fun, beauty and wonderment at nature in this somewhat crazy and depressing world these days😀👏🏻👏🏻
Lol, fake drag/weight at the opener! Genius 😂❤
Tem muitas pedras ágata aqui na região. Inclusive bem maiores que essas.
Sou de Passo Fundo, município próximo a Salto do Jacuí.
First cut is my favorite.
I like the VW bug one!! Although, I will say that all three were pretty cool. Love the blue gray.
That shipping cost can realy get ya!
This was super funny, and the Agagtes were cool!👍
Glad you enjoyed!
They are all beautiful 😍 The last one is my favorite 😍
Wow! Do you go to your rocks every day to look at each one again lol! I go like: my precious…!
Sizes would allow nice slices for polishing and resale.
The first one is my favorite. 💜
Taylor, u silly! I'd say blue-gray or gray-blue. Beautiful either way! I love that second one especially
The agates are lovely. I'm also here for the laughs. Yours not mine. Thank you
Lol dragging in the Agates.
Fool me once, that's on you.
Fool me again, that's why I watch the channel.
🥰
And that Double Nodule, even looks like a Bird Thunder, Thunder.
The cut butt agate looks like a Volkswagen beetle. It would be a keeper for me. I Enjoy your videos, thanks for all the entertainment.
You made my day with this video expecialty with the opening
Im glad!
I like the last one. Would make wonderful bookends.
I did the same thing. I have several agates that are way too big for any saw I own.
That was an awesome video. All I could think on that last one was agate got back lol.
Hi, Taylor! Keep laughing with you at the other side of the Earth.👍👍👍😃😃😃The 1st is my favorite in this lot, though two others are so unique. You have made the most proper cut line for the double bubble.☺ Great!👍
Candy for the eyes...YUMMY. ! They are all amazing! Cool beans :) God Bless, Rebekah
I lliked the sparks happening inside the 3rd agate.
You are such a kid! I like that about you. I wouldn't want to chose a favorite because I'll be trying to chose until next Sunday.
All are gorgeous but I think the last one is my favourite too
Did you overpay for them? At least you got all winners. The teardrop shape one so cool it make me wanny cry.
Of course the bunzilian agate got back, it’s the Brazilian default 😂
They are absolutely worth the money! I like shadow banding, so I guess the second one would be my fav.
For $200 at least they were all good! I also thought it was really cool to see the saw and the sparks going through I thought maybe I was just seeing things!
I kind of liked that grey, white-ish and light bluein the first one, better then number two and three.
It did! Baby got back. Love it!
The second one is my favorite but the 3rd was a good surprise
Omg aren’t you happy you didn’t make the cut up the crack though. Nice cut on the butt one… a lot of ppl probably would have cut through that line I’d think and you would have ended up with a bad cut because you probably would of been so close to that geo part. Goood cuts on all three the first one would have been so so awesome as a perfect teardrop if it didn’t have that little piece missing!
Dang it so hard to pick with these three! They are all so awesome, but i think the second one is my fav.
Last one can be a “d”, “b”, “p” or a “q”
Love your humor!
Definitely the double bubble "Wagnerian" agate😂🎉!
Last ones my fav. It looks like an angry bunny!
It is something beyond beautiful, it is beyond incredible
So funny! That last stone was buttiful!
Love the double bubble from Walker
Explain why you cut across the minor thin axis.
I would consider the transverse axis, diagonally. 🎉😊
I think you got your money's worth. They are beautiful.
Definitely worth the $200 the last one has to be my favourite because it has a hilarious backside 😂
Agate got back.
Looks like an old VW beetle
The last one is amazing! When the pieces are side-by-side like that it sort of looks like an ant or moth face to me? Really cool!
You always make me laugh!
So beautiful, a surprise Everytime!!
The second one would be beautiful slabbed with a small light mounted behind it to use as s night light.
i have recently started collecting agates in Kintyre scotland . i have lots of types including rare clyde coast agate coral. i have no rock saw or means to polish them and i would love to see inside them . i have tiny ones and large ones in lots of different colours including carnelian and pink/green and blue whites and reds . can i send them to your po box , i only ask that you cut em and show the insides on your channel
LOVE ur laugh and the agates!!!
Agate #2- if you hold it pointed side up, it looks like a cloaked Angel with a halo
Love it!
That last one reminds me of an ampersand..&&&&! Lol
He starts off seeming disappointed by what he got for the price and then just realized he bought straight bangers when he cut them open.
Probably could sell them for more than he paid for them
Pity you couldn't use Queen's big bottomed girl as the music for the last agate.
You mean, “ Fat Bottomed Girls”…. And I completely agree with you. That would have been perfect.
Taylor,
The last one was my favorite.
Do you ever think you'll be able to get your hands on one of those amazing multi-color agates from Mexico.
I know they are pricey, but maybe a small one or two?
Cheers,
Rik Spector
Laguna agates!
That last one looked like a volks wagon bugs, back to back🤣
Haha! All the agate butt jokes are hilarious!
