"Fossil kayak adventure pays off - awesome tooth Razor Kayaks R2 Ultra Razor Kayaks sent me out with a brand new kayak the R2 Ultra and I wasted no time putting it to work exploring a stretch of coastline Ive never been able to reach before. Getting on the water opened up a whole new fossil hunting area and it didnt take long to spot a very promising site packed with potential. After that I head to another location where I strike it lucky with several fossil teeth scattered through the rock. These fossils are dinosaur-aged making them incredibly exciting finds. I bring one of the teeth home"

Using a pneumatic air scribe and delicate micro air abrasion techniques I slowly remove the surrounding rock without damaging the fossil within. Fossil preparation is a test of patience and precisionevery pass of the tool has to be controlled as one wrong move can leave a permanent mark on the specimen. This video captures the full process from the initial rough matrix removal with the air scribe to the fine"

"Mystery fossil prep - rib or nose I Found a Dinosaur-Aged Mystery Bone After a Flood After a recent flood in one of our local rivers I stumbled upon what looked like a fossilized rib bone possibly from a plesiosaur or mosasaur. But after carefully prepping it Im not so sure anymore Could this be the rostrum of an extinct fish called Protosphyraena The texture and shape are surprisingly similar Check out the prep process and fossil close-ups and let me know your thoughts in the comments.

"Fossil crab - how did it get in the rock how concretions form One of the questions I get asked numerous times a day is how did the fossil crab get inside the rock The other thing that always puzzled me is the fact that the crabs aren't scavenged or eaten by other creatures including other crabs. I used Blender to create the animation of the crab being covered in the concretion which I based on this paper: Yoshida H. Ujihara A. Minami M. et al. Early post-mortem formation of carbonate concretions around tusk-shells over week-month timescales. Sci Rep [--] [-----] (2015)."

"Fossil skull prep - even more teeth exposed I carry on prepping the fossil skull I found in the rainstorm with some surprising results I think it is similar to a gemfish or a barracuda.

"3D scanning my fossil plesiosaur vertebra (Revopoint POP [--] unboxing) I've been on the lookout for a 3D scanner since I've started using photogrammetry to make 3D models of my fossils as photogrammetry takes ages and isn't always a true reflection of the fossil's dimensions. With that in mind I recently backed a project on Kickstarter for the Revopoint Mini 3D scanner which has an accuracy of 0.02mm - more than enough for what I am doing. I was chatting to one of their team who offered to send me a POP [--] to try as it would work well for fossils. I've been using it for about a month now and I"

"This [--] million year old rock has something inside I found a really interesting rock on the beach it had just enough clues on the outside to suggest something ancient was hidden inside. In this video I carefully prep the fossil using a pneumatic air scribe with a tungsten carbide tip slowly chipping away the surrounding matrix to reveal a Tumidocarcinus giganteus an extinct crab species that once lived about [---] meters deep on the mid-shelf around [--] million years ago. Because the fossil and the surrounding rock are almost the same hardness the prep work had to be done slowly and precisely."

"New area delivers a giant fossil Join me as I trek for over two hours through thick New Zealand bush to reach a hidden beach few have ever seen. The longer spring daylight hours let me push further than usual and it pays off. On this remote stretch of coast I discover crabs unlike the ones I usually find along with a truly massive fossil shell. This episode is all about the adventure of exploration: navigating dense bush following the geology to new ground and uncovering unexpected fossils where few have looked before. If you love the thrill of the hunt and the science behind ancient life"
