How Agate Spheres Are Made
Much more interesting when you can see the flat faces than when it's a sphere, at least for me.
yes it is...you can see those layers when it is just plain flat just like a tree's trunk where you can also see those layers inside
I especially like it after the third drilling
Agree.
Same, i like seeing the smooth clean cut against the natural rock behind, reminds me of the hidden wonders of the earth.
When everything is polished then it just makes me think it could be fake or glass.
I like both, the sphere makes for a good fidgeter.
The real jaw breakers!!!
Everlasting Gobstopper.
More like, ed edd and eddy giant jaw breakers.
They definitely will break your jaws
the forbidden jaw breakers
🤣
I love semi precious stones but does one do with an agate ball?
You admire it's beauty, and you place it on a tripod base, on a shelf afterwards. Ha.
You look at it 😂
You add it to your collection. Do you know how many bowls I have around my house just filled to the brim with rocks, stones, crystals...
@@sarahelizabeth8691 Yes. I'm a big collector of rocks and minerals too. It's fun.
Throw it at people
Still found & collected by hand! With a larger 3 point shaping / polishing machine (shaping heads) larger size spheres can be made? Thank you. Also, can that machine shape large enough quartz or marble?
What a natural beauty. Thank you for sharing.🙏
not only is this cool but holy shit the music is amazing
I always wonder how these spears are made.. so mesmerized to watch this video and the technology behind it. Thank you for posting.
So nobody's gonna say anything about the music.🔥🔥

I really like the shape at 1:18.
Ohhgh my god I just realised you can click on the Time mentioned instead of using the bar hahahaha Holy

Me too 💜💚
У меня отец геолог, находил очень интересные камни. И в детстве я помогала ему их полировать. Только у нас не было специальных машин и оборудования. Делали вручную.
Время собирать камни
А гелог в каких местах.
Я в Норильске...

Sangat melimpah dan saya suka
Lindo mesmo muito lindo.
Да, я тоже резал чукотских агаты...
Красота...
It's so beautiful but same time, it's so wanted that mountains, houses from all kinds of species, are being ruined just for us to have that stone. Our desires for materials really are getting out of hand. How much I want stones like that, and tho I do have gemstones, most as gifts, I wouldn't buy it anymore. The energy might be still in there but it's not made for good intentions, only for money, ruining nature once again
These stones do not hurt the environment and neither does finding them. Most of those rocks are found less than 10 feet under the surface and are you seriously suggesting humans just stop digging and having hobbies?
@@theoneinthemiddle5553 where in my comment do I suggest we should stop digging and stop having hobbies??????
U put words in my mouth
@@purplesky416 you literally said the gathering of these stones "destroys mountains and houses of other species". No. It doesn't.
@@theoneinthemiddle5553 yes thats what I said. And if you actually read the rest, you'll see I didn't suggest we should stop. I didn't suggest everybody should stop having hobbies. I said I wouldn't buy it anymore. So stop putting words in my mouth.
And ofcourse it destroys homes for other species. If goats used to live on those mountains they can't live there anymore. Same goes for snakes, birds and all kinds of species. Same with the rainforest, if you destroy trees, animals wouldn't be able to live there anymore. That also isn't so hard to understand right🤦🏽♀️
@@purplesky416 again, no they aren't destroyed. You're wrong. These rocks can be found at ALMOST SURFACE LEVEL. You don't have to dig very far at all to find them. I remember moving in to a new house when I was like 11 and me, my mom and sister found 3 or 4 just from digging up the garden about 3 feet. And I never SAID YOU SAID THAT, but you ARE insinuating that we stop by talking about how "bad" it is. When in all reality it's not even bad. Because it's not very hard to find these stones. You think people have to dig for those the same way we mine for diamonds? Lol get a clue. Snowflake
Amazing looking!! Awesome 👌 work!!!! Love the Channel!!!
Water is the giver of Life and the artist of stone and mineral.
Really informative. Learned a lot. 😒
They look like planets 👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️❤️
That's super cool!
Nice video❥ Beautiful agate polishing❦ Can I see oval cabochon polishing for ring?
are those things useful for anything?
Yes you sell them to yuppies
No. Its art.
Is the Mona Lisa useful for anything?
@@Slayceos Reminds me of those baskets of stone eggs. Turns out parents were out and a couple of students were, how can I put this fooling around and got one lost.
So they went off to accident and emergency at the local hospital. Quite open as to what had happened. How can you not be? Anyway, A&E couldn't get the egg out, so they sent her up to obstetrics, as they were the experts on extractions from that location. 40 mins latter, doctor appears pops his head round the curtain to the waiting lad. We've had a message from obstetrics, they say mother and egg are doing fine.
@@Nickle314 a precious memory to be had for sure
Decoration and art, as well as decoration. I sell stones and many people believe they have metaphysical and healing properties, some think that the roundness may help with this.
I’d rather keep it as a geode something about it just makes it more precious
@sourand jaded you mean the rock face being slowly destroyed by wind and water erosion anyway?
@@averagejoe9040 no I guess he meant the rock face that was demolished by excavator
@@JayK108 yeah, the one being slowly destroyed by weather induced erosion.
@sourand jaded You sound sourand jaded.
@sourand jaded so what does it matter if we accelerate the process given that the end result is the same.
Crystals and minerals either make people happy, or illicit no reaction at all. But they don’t upset anyone.
well, if you talk about so called "powers" of (semi) precious stones, then there are many combinations that are traditionally forbidden, as they are bringing negative effect to wearer. For excample saphires and rubines are forbidden to wear at the same time, brilliants, given by lover, should never be borrowed to someone else to wear, opals are only for special occasions and not for everyday as they basically work like coffein. Mountain crystals and onyx are similar- good for short term, but for many people stress them out. Green turcoise has opposite effect, it calms, but a little too much, so only elderly people can wear it.
So weather or not to believe those "traditions". But at least, if you talk about "effects of crystals and minerals", be consistent in your take. Either go for science- which means those are just pretty things with no effect. Or tradition- which has tons of rules when and how you can use those so you would not get negative reaction.
@Bruh my scientific part agrees with that notion. Which means it is cheaper and more effective (and environmentaly friendly) to just buy some glass or ceramic ball, instead of agate. Yet I have quite many natural stones in my house.
muito bom trabalho belas pedras 🤟🤟🤟🤟
Thank you 🥰🤟🏻❤️💋
very cool, have you considered filming the creation of a few pieces and then selling them. People are into that "hand made" feeling.
That little happy face at 1:15 💜💚 best shape too IMHO
how do y'all pronounce agate? as "ah-get" or as "uh-gate"
Neither. a-gate [Short a]
Ag as on agriculture and gate as in a garden gate
ageit
Ay-get, around here...
@@stacysalinas22 deeeep so-uth eh!
Smooooooth jazz!
Beautiful, do you sell to interested parties? Luv the different shapes.
No he just keeps them all in a shed out back
I have a set of agate bookends, I prefer the flatter surfaces.
Very pretty stones

Poor Stone Mountain. Nature is just silent dealing with what we're doing, waiting for a moment to show to us what we'll regret for the rest of our lives.
Damn 3 person small mine, shame on them for destroying the world single handed, do you drive a car?
Wow
Do you sell these ?
Красиво. Это мрамор?
Beaultiful
Where is this place ? Mai i come over there?
Forbidden jawbreakers
I have a Gryphon 10 in 1 lapidary machine from the early 80s that accepts a sphere making attachment. Un fortunately I've never been able to find one.
Beautiful. Careful with that. It'll roll off a table occasionally
