You might be able to sell some of the thin pieces to someone who makes cabs. The chunky one could be sold as bookends - many people just need one book end so you wouldn't need to have pairs, I use to make gem trees and always looked for smaller chunks of stuff to mount my trees on. Small pieces are good for people who want a piece of agate but can't afford anything bigger. Especially true for junior rock hounds. Smaller pieces could be sold to someone who wire wraps. I'm sure you'll not get "stuck" with any. Great video - so much fun to see so much and such a variety of pieces.

Hey Taylor ​​⁠@AgateDad I have seen on other people RU-vid pages that people that have those big agates and medium size agate and Geo agates and they can’t polish them on their king cab or they don’t have a king cab because the agates are too big I’ve seen people use a handheld polisher to clean up their faces and everything and it has all the different grits that you need as well. And as for the agates with the crystals in them, you could use that handheld polisher and polish them up and sell them on your store and people will buy those up because people love them when they are all polished up. Oh and also you can get a smaller handheld tool to polish in the places that you can’t get with the bigger polish anyways I thought I would tell you what I have seen on other people’s RU-vid page as always I love your page and your videos I have been watching you since you started your RU-vid channel

I can only imagine what that much agates cost. Was it expensive? And are there more modest purchase options for beginners looking to collect Agates? I’d appreciate hearing from you if you’re comfortable sharing any advice. I have been playing around with the idea of getting a small wet saw. My space options are limited as I’m in a one bedroom apartment, lol! I have quite a nice collection of stones I’d like to learn how to cut them. Do you recommend taking a class before attempting as a beginner, or is it comfortable so you can kinda just dive right into it with the basic instructions provided? I’m very curious to learn more about the type of craft you do, but I’m procrastinating out of fear. Thank you for sharing great and interesting content in such a pleasant and engaging manner.

I think the larges purchase of Brazilians I've made over the years was 200 lbs, so you've got me beat by quite a bit. Congrats. You have just secured about 50 new videos! Enjoy.
