just found this beautiful water level
again
turned around
check it out in the sun
and i look down and i see this yellow
thing right
here
i am fairly certain
that
there's a lymanite stained lake superior
egg
oh yes it is
man
i don't see any visible bands on that
one
but that lima knight holy moly
little pockets in there
i love lima night stained eggs
this is our first crecon of the year
it's up to pretty good start so like i
said i'm in a creek today i'm up on the
north shore of minnesota and i've only
been in this creek one time before and i
think i might have to call this lima
knight creek because i found my very
best lemonade stained again in this
creek and uh i stopped about five feet
ahead of that found another lima knight
creek strikes again
it's a little one right here
just a little bit
i don't even see
i don't see any bands on this one
so i just plucked this out of the creek
and i thought maybe it's a little
thunder egg egg it and once i got in the
sunlight here i saw this really
interesting husk right here i'm thinking
maybe it's a nodule so
um at the end of the video i'm probably
going to cut this one and that big
limonite stain egg that we found to see
what's going on inside but
i
ran into the end of the creek
before it turns into unhuntable creek so
we are gonna head
back up the creek
to a different part of it we can find
there
[Music]
so we made it to the other part of the
creek and
i hit my head on a few branches on the
way over but i was peeking in here
and
looks like
right there potentially an egg it's a
little awkward so i'm gonna grab it here
it's not an
egg okay we'll keep looking
[Applause]
i found a few little nodules just
spotted this glower right here
another little nodule looks like some
potential eyes hiding in there found a
few more nodules
a little bit ago
this one looks kind of cool a little egg
a pocket going on in there
some more laminite stained
bits and i think
may have found one
right in there
i did not it's just quartz
i've done that where i'm like this might
be something and it's nothing
probably about 30 times today
so i ended up walking up the creek a lot
further i didn't find any more eggets we
found a few other things that are pretty
interesting that we are going to cut
open on the saw but now that i'm done
here at the creek
we're going to fire up my saws and we're
gonna cut these open i'm using both my
saws today my 10 inch saw and my five
inch witch i got a new blade for i'm
really excited about this my previous
saw blade was the thin notched saw blade
there's nothing wrong with it i just
prefer
the thin centered diamond saw blade
i don't know why i just like these a lot
better so
pop this on start cutting these egg it's
open i'm really excited about a few of
these
[Music]
we're going to start off the cutting
with this handful of little egg nodules
and little bits really excited to see
what's going on and do these let's fire
up our little saw
get going
[Music]
sweet water level
that's awesome
so we got three more cuts with little
grogu here and out of all the cuts that
we've done so far i really like this
little
lima knight nodule it's got really
beautiful quartz in there that's just
really cool and then this awesome water
level that
that is cool i love that
i knew this was going to have water
level in it because there's just a
little bit going right here so i planned
for the cut
to show up these water level
bands pretty cool yeah we got a few more
let's do it
well that's cool kind of cloudy in there
see how it kind of runs in
from the exterior
interesting so now we get to fire up the
big tenants uh i got a bunch of this
really weird stuff that i was like i
just want to see what's going on inside
this you can see
a little quartzy crystal pocket right
there there's this potential nodule like
the fullest of nodules you can see this
husk right here
our lymanite stain nodule and then also
this very weird piece right here that
we're going to make some slices in as
well so we'll just start cutting a bunch
of stuff up and show you as we go
[Music]
well that is really cool
i'll be honest i am not even sure what
mineral this is
definitely some quartz in there but that
is really really cool
i did not have high hopes for this
random whatever it is
but
i'm actually really excited about this
look at how beautiful that is isn't that
just
it's a mess
but it's really
really beautiful it's got greens
yellows blacks
right in here above my thumb
almost looks like
you know some silica rich waters got in
there during the formation
that is so
cool really really pretty very unique
not what i anticipated
cool beans so now we're going to cut
this potential nodule it's got this husk
right here that is very common with
other nodules i found i'm hoping that
it's not just
right here
like a very thin layer so we're going to
cut it right here right through the
middle of that
get my respirator off i'll do it this
way
whoa
that is really cool
interesting that is so neat i'm super
happy with that
cool cool let's move on
to our last
one the laminate stain nodule we're
going to go for surface area on this
right down the middle
so i think earlier i called and i think
it's gonna be
hamas
look at how pretty
[Laughter]
man oh man that is so beautiful
that pocket right there get out of here
that is really beautiful
we are back inside but the fun doesn't
end there because i'm going to take the
last one that we just cut the lymanite
stained egget nodule and we're going to
polish it on my cab king so let's fire
it up and we'll get to polishing
[Music]
and what i'm gonna do on our cab king
here is i'm going to grind down the
outside here and we're going to give it
a rounded
face polish on both of these i'm really
excited because the details in this are
just going to pop as we start running
through the stages here so
let's get started on the 220 grit
diamond wheel
[Music]
so our a good is through the 280 grit
wheel and we're gonna move on to the 600
that's right here
on through 1200 and 000
it's looking really great so far these
details are spectacular
so excited to get a mirror finish on
these i'll turn the cap king back on
we'll see after 3 000.
[Music]
so now that i've got these beauties
through the 3000 grit wheel
we're gonna pop off this side wall and
pretty sure i can get this off while
it's running
yeah okay so here's the pad it's got the
pink 14 000 grit paste on there start
wrapping this thing up
[Music]
so we got both of these halves through
the 14 000 grit but i
am very happy
with these
got a lot of character to them
and i love the details
that are going on inside
both of these
that is so
interesting so cool
just packed full of eggety goodness
well i had a ton of fun on all of the
adventures that we had from our very
first creek hunt of the year to coming
back here cutting all that stuff open
seeing what's going on inside and then
taking that lake superior again nodule
with the limonite staining bringing it
to the cap king and polishing up both
halves and i really love how it looks
inside and i really hope you enjoyed
today's video if you did leave a thumbs
up and leave a comment let me know what
was your favorite part of the video i
look forward to more adventures with you
