@@kaylahall1219 yeah I wondering the same thing. I've been subscribed for awhile. Even won one of his giveaways. Which I proudly display in my living room. Taylor is an awesome guy. Was hoping to go to Duluth this summer and met him but I had back surgery. Next summer for sure my mom and I are going. We both are into rocks. Have a great day. Hopefully we will find out what he does with all those awesome rocks. My house would be full of them. Kinda have a lot now. And I just bought a Lortone tumbler. More rocks!😄
I absolutely LOVE that most of "us" rock collectors glee over a heart shaped rock! Congrats!

Old disabled house bound dusty rusty rockhound here: Sooo many amazing agates...and so big! I love the heart with an actual aorta! That orange one with the quartz...I would name that rock "Manderin Lace Rock" (I give my personal favorite rocks their own personal names...like I would a pet!) Yeah, rocks like these 2 would go in my pet rock cabinet and get my personal admiration every day. And yes...I am crazy 🤪...about rocks!!!lol!!!
I’m not sure if it’s possible to pick a favorite with a line up like that! They were all unbelievable beautiful! A few of them were almost breathtaking. I love these cutting videos. Cutting is so much fun, you never know what your going to get!
That first cut was amazing!
This video has a really nice pace to it. I struggle with how to keep cutting videos interesting. Of course, having big box of Lake Superior agates to cut in half helps a lot. There were some beauties in there!

Thank you Rob! It is a challenge making them engaging, the last two videos took me at least 6 hours to edit, which is around 3 hours more than usual.

Dude that geode agate at the end… 🤯🤯🤯🤯 holy moly man these were fantastic! Shoutout to Daniel for sending them to get cut!
I came across your videos by accident and am hooked! Never, ever dreamed that a rather ordinary looking rock could be so beautiful inside! Thanks for a new experience.
I love the first one with the quartz layering!😊❤
From first to last…WOW!!!!! ✌️💜😃
Each one is unique. Infinite variety.
Omg. I cant believe the beauty thats inside. If i didn't see it i wouldnt believe it. Loveliness.
One word: WOWSERS!!
It's like Christmas with every cut

First view of your geode agate. So glad to see all AND to hear your favs. It is always a pleasure to view you.
I think my favorite was the "alien" it just looked so neat
Generous share thank you very much!! All are looking unbelievably gorgeous!
Your master for cutting hard stone.
Gosh .. hard to pick a favorite with so many beautiful choices.
Soooooooo pretty! I like the one with all the eyes, 3rd (ish) one in
My favorite was the first one you cut!
Gorgeous agates, every one of them! The first one you cut is a brain to go with the heart 🙂 Also wanted to let you know I appreciate how you show the outside of the rock thoroughly as well (even if it's after cutting it). And I think you include the perfect amount of actual cutting footage as well. There's something very gratifying about watching the rock be cut, but too much and it starts to get boring (if you're just the observer, I got a wet tile saw about 5 months ago and have been having a BLAST cutting rocks open!). So thank you for your great videos!
Oh wow! So beautiful!! I have a favorite, the first one you cut that your wife said it looks like a snail.
That guy must really love lakers. Great video once again!
Those agates...unbelievable! You need to hunt with this guy!

It was so great to see the varied colors of these untreated agates. So often all we get to see are the dyed agates in fake looking colors...

All of them are beautiful!!!!
You truly saved the best for last!
They're all my favorite
Watching you cut those ugly rocks, is such a treat! Merry X-mas to me today! Woop woop!
Just goes to show you never judge a rock by its outside appearance. What an amazing surprise to see the beautiful insides of the rocks. I would polish all of them. Blown away by beauty of them. That's definitely a geode agate at the end. I love them all Taylor and great new saw!
Beautiful rocks 😊💙, my favorite is the first one you cut 💙😊

Its always exciting to see what they are going to be.....
I'm not even sure why I was routed to this Channel. But I'm glad it did. I never felt excited about rocks before, but damn you made me smile and crave for more everytime you open each rock
I love your imagination lol. ❤️👑🌍 It's a lot like mine. You can see things in the Agates. That's awesome. 💯🌅 Very beautiful my goodness. I definitely do thank God for these beautiful minerals. Which what, it starts off as Rocks, then those rocks turn to Minerals and then those minerals turn to elements. ☺️🌍❤️
holy crap...how freakin' saaweeeeeeeeet were those ! to hard ta pick a favorite...but totally tubular ! 😆 enjoyed the vid 👊
Very nice patterns, nice video... Thanks for sharing
@ 4:15 that blue band is stunning. Definitely between this and the skull at 1:20 for my favorites.
@ around 1:20, the cut agate looks like a skull profile complete with eye sockets. I LOVE, your channel.
Spectacular cut rocks ❤️
Looks like scrambled eggs with ham-Beautiful.

The spiral snail. Truly rare. You are so nice to do that for a friend. I’m guessing you have to empty your saw water so it doesn’t freeze! Thanks.
Congrats on the geode agate but I truly was awestruck as you opened the smaller agate at 4:18; stay warm!
Amazing dad
4:17 & 5:06 were my two favorites.
The 1st one you cut. The snail. It did not look like an agate from the outside, but that inside was awesome,

Just came across your channel on KZread. Worked in the geology department at college for 2 semesters. That experience got me into minerals. You cut some really interesting stuff. I've been watching other videos on finding agates and cutting them. I'm planning a trip to the Yellowstone river in Montana. I may have to include Lake Superior! Nice Agate!
The geode one definitely looks like some calcite in there with the gorgeous smoky Quartz! Hit it with the uv and see if it glows!

I had no idea that an agate looked different than the ones I find at Round Mountain, Arizona! I'm a notorious rockhound & have fallen in love with the fire agate. Now I've gotta `nother agate to sniff out! 🤣
If you like geode agates, try the smaller streams in southern Indiana. The rivers down there have been picked for decades, but the smaller ones may still have tone=s of the little and not so little treaures. When I was a teen, my dad brought back a truck load and we built a retaining wall with them. Good luck.
