    Montana Rock Mom deserves way more subscribers than she currently has... her videos are very well done and often include half finding rocks/ half cutting rocks, all in one video. 👏

    That was the weirdest, most extraordinary piece of wood, ever! Gorgeous! The coral you polished was really gorgeous and i think the difference in shine is way prettier! That quartz agate is beautiful. It does look like it got folded. As a matter of fact, all of them were weird! Weirdly beautiful and absolutely stunning! My favorite was the bear canyon with the giant cave in it! But they were all just stunning! Not a dud in the bunch! Awesome day! I loved Alexis's cameo! And Thank you MRM for letting us feed drogon! Great day for weirdly beautiful rocks!

    That piece of petrified wood with the beautiful montana dendritic agate center just blows my mind. Gotta love muriatic acid- really brought out that deep amethyst pocket. You know if Theo's hands have a hard time reaching the end of the pocket...it's deep... Theo's hands are the size of my head, LOL xoxo @TheoKellison

    Old disabled house bound dusty rusty rockhound here: I enjoy your videos so much and this one is no exception! Kim's videos "rock" also. I started following her videos the first time I saw her on one of your videos in your early days. I admire and respect how she fosters excitement and mentoring among "rock heads" new to our hobby. I've watched you add skill and equipment to you own rock laboratory through your UA-cam channel and Kim has been an invaluable resource for you. I love seeing new talent and passion emerge in the lapidary arts horizon! I'm sure she is a proud "rock momma"...and I am proud of you both!

    My favorites are the red agate at the beginning, 11:10 the outer space sunset with 2 suns, the glacier vortex directly after, and the amethyst cave @ 15:41. Basically all of them!

  • @TheLindagdetroit
    @TheLindagdetroit 2 роки тому +2

    6:55 I have a stone like that! I dug it out of the ground while walking a trail in Ann Arbor, MI. I cannot for the life of me figure out what the heck it is beyond "some kind of silicate" lol. My best guess is seam agate with the matrix weathered away but truly no clue. Mine has iron inclusions so it's just an intense looking piece, blue and white and orange and red. It's got bubbles and banding and god knows what else.
    Seriously geeked to see what's inside yours!!!

    Mmm Mmm! Vuglicious!!! That pocket in the big bear canyon is fabulous! I'd consider measuring the depth of the pocket and cutting it again to better display the crystals. You could have a fabulous amethyst geode AND a large crystal ring that you could maybe backlight or something. It's fabulous as is but personally if I had the means I'd want to see more of that pocket somehow. Also loved that really weird agate 14:20. You have to wonder how some of this stuff formed it looks so bizarre.

    OK, pure guess here. That super cool agatized wood amazingness looks like what happens to wood right where a trunk begins to branch out and the two branches start to grow back into one another as they get bigger and the bark patterns get absorbed into the wood.
