- We'd like to thank Hims for sponsoring today's video.
And if you'd like to find out how to get up to $67
worth of awesome product for only five bucks,
you gotta check out the end of today's video.
- [Man] So this is, so we're told,
a piece of petrified wood.
Can you verify that?
- Let me see.
Oh, yeah, that's petrified wood all right.
- [Man] Do you know how petrified wood is made?
Where it comes from?
- Yeah, petrified wood is when an organic material,
such as this wood, is buried by a sediment,
and then, which protects it from decay
due to oxygen and organisms.
And then when water comes in,
it replaces the organic material with inorganic material,
such as silicates and pyrite,
forming petrified wood,
a type of fossil, actually.
- [Man] Hmm, seems legit.
Okay, we're just gonna strap this down,
and the plan is to cut it diagonally.
Do you got the strap?
- Yup.
Just strap it right, thinking just like that.
(drilling)
(upbeat music)
- [Man] Okay, big reveal.
Huh.
- [Man 2] A little pink section in there.
- [Man] If I can get it without a glare.
It's really hard to tell with the reflecting so much light.
- [Man 2] Dry it off.
- [Man] So that part right there,
that is what looks like it has
the most wood grain-like characteristic.
- [Man 2] Might be a little knot right there.
- [Man] Okay, let's try and grind this.
See if we can get it to show up a little bit better.
(buzzing)
That did next to nothing.
That rock is just way too hard.
- Hey, thanks again to Hims for making this video possible.
- Hims is a new wellness brand that helps men,
like you and me, be the best version of themselves.
An issue with your hair, skin, or impotence isn't weird,
but not handling it, now that's weird.
- By their very nature, men are quite stupid.
(buzzing)
(spraying)
And we don't always go to the doctor when we should,
like that one time when I crashed a snowmobile
and cut my face open, decided to superglue it back together
and then dealt with nasty in-grown hairs
for the next four years.
- So don't be stupid, use Hims.
They take your privacy seriously
and use medical-grade solutions,
both prescription and non-prescription.
- So be a man, a man who takes care of himself.

And Hims is giving our viewers a month trial
of the comprehensive hair kit for $5.
That's up to a $67 value.
I haven't quite given up yet on polishing this.
So, hopefully it works.
(buzzing)
(up-tempo music)
About 25 minutes in, this is where I'm at so far.
So this is the half that I haven't done anything with.
So, these kind of washboard-looking ridges right here,
that's what's left from the water jet.
So I started off with this grinding wheel
and that kind of gave me a finish like this.
So it took out the washboard,
but it still left a lot of deep gouges.
So then I switched to a grinding bit on a Dremel tool.
I'm slowly grinding those out,
so that's what I've done on this section right here.
So I'm probably only gonna finish this section right there
just to see if it's worth doing the rest of it.
(buzzing)
(up-tempo music)
I just went until I couldn't see those arced gouges anymore
and all the gouges in here look to be a little straighter,
which I think is the wood grains.
So now I need to sand it.
(up-tempo music)
I just rinsed it off, and that's the section right there
that I sanded and that's up to 320 grit sandpaper.
I've been doing this forever, so I'm just gonna polish that
and we'll see what it turns out.
(up-tempo music)
I started with something like this
with all those lines and ridges from the water jet,
and I was able to get to that.
And that, I believe what you're seeing,
is the wood grain right there coming that way.
