Wow! Fantastic shop!

The effort you're putting in to your content is paying off. I'm being educated and entertained each and every time I view your content. Thanks, Jared!

I found the Langford Lapidary Shop by watching a Currently Rockhounding video. I live in CT & belong to 3 rock & gem clubs in the state. CT is a small state which has 7 rock,gem & mineral clubs.

Awesome job with this interview Currently Rock Hounding!!! love this!

I was born in Yakima and lived a portion of my life in the Yakima valley. Little town called Toppenish. I have resided in Michigan for the last 40 or so years.

One of the best programs, I've seen...👍💪👐 Very nice mix of information, advertising and Teaching...!!👌 I really enjoy your videos, and you are doing better, and BETTER... KEEP up your efforts....🤗🤩 The Danish Viking living in GHANA.

This store is incredible! What an awesome video to watch! The knowledge to which both owners have is impressive! I am jealous of the saws but not what he probably spent on them😂! Thanks for sharing!

Pretty sir!

I will rate this video “A” Game! Right under Rev. BillyGraham and the Great Elvis Presley this video grabbed my attention and kept it until the end.

Good stuff right here.

Gosh how I wish they were located here in SoCal.

Awsome episode!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you for taking the time to open up your shop for this tour, I really enjoyed it!

In the late 40s and into the 60s lapidary was the number one hobby in the US.

Another great video!

On my finest agates I use Linde "A" but I may very well order some of his Ellensburg blue polish and give it a try.

Wish I would've known you were around! I live down in the Lower Valley. Nice episode!

Nice video and interview. I'll need to stop by sometime and pay them a visit.

A really good shop, with lots of cool gadgets and rocks. Thanks to them and you for the tour. We like the Yakima area. Keep having fun!! 😷⚒

Thanks for this Tour! Your passion for rockhounding is appreciated. A wonderful shop to find rare treasures for sure!

That was a great shop! And they can do xrf?That's amazing. It would definitely set them apart and there shop is already amazing. The saws there are so cool. He has just about everyone you will ever need! My goodness! And the rocks that he has on display are just incredible. He has a rhino jaw bone with teeth! Amazing! And just some really rare and beautiful kinds of rock to buy. Just keeping all that rough of rare rock types is incredibly expensive, but having a system where you know what you have and where it's located in your stock room, is mind blowing. And they are so friendly and so informed and could answer your questions and they were wonderful. And your interviewing questions got much better by asking open ended questions and then just shutting up and letting him fill the empty space with words. It was a great interview and I would love to go there some time. If I'm ever in that area. But wow! That was an awesome shop and I'm just a little jealous! Lol. Great interview and video! Thanks Jared.

DANG!!! What an awesome workshop😍🤩😍🤩 That bandsaw looks boss!!!! Thanks for sharing

I love to hear the stories of how people started on the path and built their dream one element at a time. Every time I find an estate sale with lapidary gear it's already over. They seem to be the best place for deals, often with material for sale as well. I just need to find out where estate sales are advertised before it's too late to go.

As usual, a very nice informative video. Thanks for doing all these interviews and letting the world know about "the little guys".

Very interesting store/shop. And the couple seem nice and genuine. Loved the episode and tour.

This is a super cool video. I will definitely be doing some business with this shop. I need some samples and print outs on an XRF. ❤❤❤❤❤ I've been looking up who I can go to with not much luck and XRF's at $15k to $30k and up. 😮😮😮 Thank you very much for this video I love all your content but this episode is huge to me personally. Thank you again

Fantastic people, impressive shop, it is interesting to see how other lapidary shops do their product and what they sell, thanks Jared and Sara you do awesome content.

Very cool interview and visit! Great shop.

Great video. Great store & great people. I wish you all continued success 😁

XRFs at 20+k !! Crazy!! At least you got a location nearby that can do that.

I saw that XRF and I was shocked he would pay to get one, but it made sense when he said it was loaned to him. I also work at the place that makes the X-ray tubes for those machines.

That is my died and went to heaven scenario!!! They have, and do, it all. His wife was first shy and nervous, but she is a powerhouse! I would love to meet them, but I'm down in OR. Someday, maybe when he has classes going. Thank you for this video. My only suggestion would be to let them finish answering a question or explanation. Your enthusiasm got the best of you I think😂. Still, as always, I enjoy your content and especially the field trips like this one. We have an "Ed's Rocks" in OR that's been here for many years. Not as big and set up as that one, but many contacts and great local materials with finished jewelry. Bless You!

If I don't see a price tag on something in a store, I see them as shysters. I'll probably look around a minute and leave. Just be open and honest and fair priced. If not, you will lose more money and also gain bad reputations that people will talk. I also think a huge problem with people is when they sell used things for the same price or even more for something brand new as if everything has value for being older. Its doesn't. Especially electronics that wear out and basically trash after 10 years if its all plastic or something with capacitors that all dry up. But you two have a very nice shop and seem down to earth.
