It's also good to see the grip on the drill.

@kurlee2460 3 месяца назад

That is so stunning.. I have yet to add to my collection a Polished piece of Petrified Wood.. I’ll get it I’m sure 👍🏻

@leslyeschoenhuth1107 Год назад

* That was actually fast.. The Agate is hard & takes a long time.. Thanks for the demonstration.. It is Huge! Turned out well..

@ecks_marks_the_spot Год назад

Nice. That was a lot of work. I have similar setup except I use a 4" wet polisher I bought on Amazon for $75. It's basically a variable speed angle grinder used for polishing granite countertops & it has a water supply attachment. It comes with diamond polishing pads but I bought an additional set of polishing pads with grits ranging from 50 to 6000 for $15. An angle grinder might give you more power & be easier on your wrist. You want one that is variable speed because you have to slow down the RPMs when you get to the higher grits to prevent it from burning your polish. Thanks.

13:11 this change you’re describing in the shininess is known as sheen level. Not to be confused with chatoyance. Great video!!

@kim.4100 7 месяцев назад

10000 is even better.

@8621Charro Год назад

I use this same set-up, because I can't afford the big stuff!! And I agree with others...the 10k grit really does bring out the inner beauty!

@justjulee9135 Год назад

That is one beautiful piece of petrified wood! I could tell a difference between 3,000 and 6,000 and a major difference after the 10,000.

@BlackHills68 Год назад

Beautiful piece of petrified wood. Definitely worth going all the way to 10,000.

@rsschdd 6 месяцев назад

Marker, pencil, soapstone. Works every time.

@NickAcker2019 Год назад

Yessir! Great demo on using good old fashion elbow grease. Taking the discs to 10000 grit did it justice for sure!!!

@RKranch Год назад

Nice ❤

@rocktime3627 Год назад

Love your setup, seems like a good way to tackle all those bigger cut rocks I have sitting around!

@IvanLopez-zh3xz Год назад

Great episode man!!!!

@grantfahlman1815 Год назад

Jason, that is certainly one nice piece of PW. I think there was a difference in the sheen between those last few grits. I can see why you wanted that one in your collection. I may have to see if its cousin is out there looking for a home. A few years ago I found a nice piece (not a round but with the grain/lengthwise) at a a local show for a VG price and it sits on my shelf.

@RockhoundingLife Год назад

Thanks 👍

@largent45 Год назад

There was a difference between the 3000 and the 6000 and the 10000 was really noticeable! It is gorgeous! The piece came out fantastic! The diy set up worked fantastic on this full round and that piece is just gorgeous! Its awesome Jason!

@riecarocks Год назад

What a GORGEOUS piece 💚 Thanks for explaining your setup! I've been trying to find a way to polish larger pieces for a long time; I will definitely try this!

@gwynnfarrell1856 Год назад

Definitely a huge difference between 6,000 and 10,000! I'm hoping to use this technique with an angle grinder so it was great to watch you do this and explain the process. Thank you! Beautiful results!

@byronrhodes1659 Год назад

The edge of your light ring reflection from 3000 to 6000 is much sharper. I see the difference.

@cynergy4 Год назад

Big difference! Great job of bringing out the natural beauty

@kimdedominicis6893 Год назад

You have tons of patience! Beautiful! Definitely using finer grits was a smart move! How long was each pad? What does the back look like?

@dawnwilkinson8717 Год назад

Wonderful piece it's very beautiful thank you for sharing

@donnalantz7981 Год назад

That is beautiful. Never thought about using a cordless drill. That's awesome. I have a few large rocks I would like to polish and I would have to do it this way. Thanks for the great tip.

@aosterkamp Год назад

I can't see why you think you need that one in your collection! Damn that turned out nice. Perfect shine, plus the natural rough crystals, AND IT'S WOOD! I love it

@MarlainaAtkins Год назад

Wow that really turned out amazing! Glad you found your piece of Saddle Mountain awesomeness! You got a nice piece. Love the little pockets of crystals✨

@QuestForDetails Год назад

that was a mission ! but what a nice specimen for the shelf. going to try that set up I think. thank you for all you do, happy hounding and see you on the next one !

@michaellong4897 Год назад

It would be cool to make a dinner plate from a stone. Get it so polished that it can be eaten from. I can definitely see a difference in the reflection with each stage of grit being used. The porosity becomes less and less with each phase. The sharpness of reflection at the end is perfect for a stone of that caliber.

@sandmaker Год назад

It's a beautiful piece and you did it well. I hope you have a nice spot to put it. Keep having fun! Just finished the podcast. Great job the two of you.

@keithcunningham7925 Год назад

It looked way better after 3 6 10,00 grit I could definitely tell the difference that peice is amazing

@RockhoundingLife 8 месяцев назад

Thank you!

@valsummers5330 Год назад

Beautiful job I have a small piece of petrified wood that I polished the end of…..took FOREVER What did you use to stabilize the slab onto the bucket bottom? One more time The grain and details truly made the effort worthwhile! Thankyou for sharing From the other side of Canada in the BC Cariboo near 70 Mile House

@thrownasearched7779 Год назад

i use diamond pads also, and in my cases, the rockhounds favorite rocks (agates, jaspers, petrified woods), had to be ground and pre polished back and forth, between 300-1500 grits. basically i tried to find the smoothest surface for the next level. if i'm unsatisfied with the next level i repeat the level before sometimes two level before that. you are luckier than me with your polishing proces. but eventually i got my rocks to the polishing state where i want them to be. Good results! 👍

@kim.4100 7 месяцев назад

It is better with the 6000 grit. Sharper lines.

@vicholm1000 Год назад

Question for ya, could one just add clear resin as you have done on other projects? If so how would it be different than this way ? Thanks and as always awesome channel.

@RockhoundingLife Год назад

Yes you can add resin to anything but if its hard silica like this rock i prefer to polish. Looks better and lasts longer.

@factchecker9358 3 месяца назад

I'm on the 50 grit stage now. Good thing I'm retired.

@RockhoundingLife 3 месяца назад

Try to get your cuts as clean and smooth as possible. If you do you can skip the 50 grit. Saves a lot of time.
