Hello I've got more questions. Can a dremel tool come in handy when you try to cut a rock? Something small like a golf ball size or smaller Geode. Can diamond blades be purchased for a Dremel? How would you keep the blade cool. I have a drill press stand for my Dremel do they make a saw stand? What would be the best type of clamp to hold a Geode for cutting? What is the best way to make a Geode look good? I hit some with a hammer but that smashed them into small pieces. Maybe I whacked them too hard. Ya think? Do you tumble Geodes? Any tips would be appreciated. drupe

DIamond bits for a dremel are covered elsewhere- but yes you can get em- I tumble Geode pieces- not the whole thing-

drupe, I wanted to tumble a geode also but was "encouraged" not to do so. Best to break up and tumble the chunks.
