– KINGSLEY NORTH –
Kingsley North is a lapidary store in Michigan's U.P. They make a great cab machine and sell many other brands too. They have a huge selection rough rock, tumblers, grit, jewelry supplies etc. at good prices. I buy most of my coarse grit from here in 45 lb. bags. It's the best price I have found. If you buy using the following link, I make a small commission.

This is the cabbing machine I use:

– THE ROCK SHED –
I buy a lot of lapidary supplies from The Rock Shed. I don't make money from your purchases there, but they have good prices and good service. This is where I buy my finer grits and polish.

– AMAZON STOREFRONT –
I also have an Amazon storefront. This is where you can find other products you may have seen in my videos. As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases. It doesn't cost you extra.

Wow, she has an incredible wealth of knowledge about geology. Please tell her thank you so much for sharing her time with us. It was awesome!

So thoughtful of Canada to share their rocks with us. I like those better than the cold winds they send in the winter.

I love the casual way they can just jump into an amazingly detailed explanation of all these random rocks. Amazing!

Rob I found this lesson in geology fascinating!! At 70, I still have so much to learn about rocks. I've always looked at rocks and wondered what they went through to form them into what we see when we find them. Growing up, we always looked for Lake Superior Agates. Your channel has helped me to gain appreciation for other rocks!

Rob, thank you so much for taking us on an absolutely fun day of rock collecting. And extra thanks to you and Nancy for such a delicious dinner! We look forward to seeing you again!

What a great geology lesson and tutorial on how these rocks are formed and recreated . Thanks Rob, see you soon my friend . Cheers

[lindenbug]

That quartzite that shows markings from a river back when it was just sandstone was one of the coolest to me! Really puts it into perspective

[NoFaceChase]

They seem like great-well educated people. Need more videos like this!!! I learned so much!

[joyceknitsandsews]

What a variety of rocks! I enjoyed the identification and formation history.

[OntarioRob]

Wow !! After watching this video & hearing the 2 geologists explain how rocks are formed & their names, I realize how little I know about rocks. I know a few, but not even close to identifying them like they do. Great educational video 👍

[cmdr]

I really found the quartz versus quartzite comparison helpful

[insp]

Wow, great program! Thank you for exceeding any expectation
Well done, best ever

[sharonbaxter]

love this video . i learned so much. They're explanations of what the rock is and how it was formed was so easy to understand. I could listen to them for hours at a time. Thank you for having them on your video. 👍

[cynthiahappel]

I really enjoyed your guests sharing their knowledge with us. Thank you.

[suzettecalleja]

Thank you for having them with you on what looks to be a beautiful day by the shore. There is so much to learn. Another day where you hit the Jackpot on finding rocks.
