I’m in st Pete! Venice is very well known for sharks teeth, including megalodons! That’s not too far from ya. I’m honestly shocked at how many cool rocks there are in all of Florida. Safe travels!

Wow!! That’s dreamy. I’ll snap a pic when I get back home. All day crew regatta for my 16 year old son today.

I can relate to that. I’ve got a few homemade half laps and a diy 14” saw. I’ve a few in the works that I’m hoping will be worth a share. Safe travels!

Great question! I would say at the beginning one out of 10 was pretty cool, that was three months or so ago. With just a few months experience, I would say one out of three is good! I do a ton of research about geology and our area, I’m sure that helps also. Safe travels!

Check out lapidary saws. Mostly done with diamond blades and grinding wheels. One can also use a wet style tile saw for the smaller rocks. I just found this hobby, but I freaking love it! So much to learn on this globe!

I have several that are 1.5lbs each side. I would be happy to make a set at a larger size for you though! Thank you for the interest!
