Today, I take you inside of my prep workshop. I'll be going over all my tools that I use, what they're used for and how to use them.
All tools used are from www.zoicpalaeotech.co.uk/
An absolute fantastic company the specializes in fossil preparation tools and have the best after care around. Go check them out if you're interested, they also off budget dremel tools for beginners so you don't have to fork out a tonne at the beginning.

A really helpful video. Got my first air tool last xmas, haven’t had a chance to set up workshop and use it yet ( new baby!), but plans are in the pipeline, making space in garage/shed, got air compressor, just need to get organised. With a safe space. My other half said he’d entertain baby when I try some prep. We have boxes of fossils. A trip to sandsend a couple of years ago meant a pack full of dacs, I’ll practice on the less perfect one. 👍🏻😀

Fantastic to see your prep setup. Really helpful for prep newbies like me :) Could you give me some more info on the extractor please?

That’s a great insight to what you need for fossils Dan,I noticed that big Hildi with a crack in it (shame )🙁.What do you do with all that waste rock that comes off the fossils?🤔

@WhitbyFossils1 2 жыл бұрын

That’s not a crack bud, it’s just the line where some of the shell came off the internal mould. There is a bit missing, which is what the white stuff is replacing it with. I’ll shape it at some point and paint and you’ll never be able to tell the difference 😉. It’s a whopper that one too. Just a touch over 7inch!
