I have found several rocks like your but not as much of that blue rock is exposed. I knew it had to be something special, but I don't have a saw like that, I would like to cut mine open, but I knew they were weren't ordinary 💖😁

How old would that rock be (approx.)? Just curious about the geological time involved.

Hard to say really. The basalt that would host it is 200 MYO.

Definitely a lot easier to prep with the cabbing machine. I’ve done a little on my tumbled rocks with a rotary tool before having a cabber. It was a nice thing you did for the young lady.

The cabbing machine makes it easier but you can do it with any flat lap.

You can always buy some rocks from the rock shed or kingsley north. Both are excellent in that they provide a large variety of rough rock.

Great video that was needed by many. I have had a handful of people ask me if I did anything before tumbling stones. I haven’t tumbled much so I always refer them to other channels for tips. But I have used my flat lap to pre-round stones before tumbling and it’s a great time saver. I’ll add this video to the list of handy video links to share around when people ask about tumbling. 🤘 Still watching…

💜 DROWNING in MIS-INFORMATION while STARVING 4 WISDOM.💜 In the BIBLE MOSES used 'clay'. Nature uses QUARTS. I use BORAX. This is why I was returned. DE-SCHEDULE CANNABIS Because my doctor told me that BIG PHARMA will financially destroy any doctor that proves that THC restores brain injuries made me so upset that I taught myself MOLECULAR SCIENCE and created GOLD. You see I learned TEMPERING long ago and understood about heat manipulating molecules. When I went to the only gold shop in KALISPELL MONTANA and showed JB I reached 22K then he threw me out telling the 'city council' that I am creating FOOLS GOLD pass tests. You see copper is 29 atoms that will melt at 1400F to 1800F but 'atoms' must be brought to a boiling point that is 3500F and have no OXYGEN putting pressure against it or will expand exploding burning on contact. This must be done for 72 to 100 hours. 50 more atoms will boil into existence and melted BORAX will absorb shells leaving 79 atoms that is GOLD. All this was just to 'prove' that my 5.5 TBI is being restored with THC when I wrecked my HARLEY. Thank you for the wisdom, LORD. Amen. Nickel transitions into Platinum & Zinc transitions into Mercury.

As a Cab cutter myself I have encountered quite a few agates both banded and like yours. I learned a trick you might enjoy on agate nodules that show light centers sometimes I flip the Heel end of the nodule so the light color sawn face will become the back and the darker blue skin will become the face of the Cabochon. Sometimes you may prefer the darker skin color of the nodule. Have been cutting cabs for over 50 years. Have fun !
