Nice hat Ray! Cool video too. Hopefully I can make it back to Washington soon to hunt for concretions and visit the Burke -- maybe get to visit Lophomastix kellyi type specimen in its concretion... Regarding the concretions' shapes. Depends on the location -- some places it's the round ones, and other places you want other shapes. In many places the crabs tend to be in concretions somewhat shaped like a crab. See my time lapse crab prep video for an example. Thanks for the cool vids!

Thanks lycophyton! All these videos were made to complement the exhibit "Cruisin' the Fossil Freeway" here at the Burke Museum.

I have enjoyed all of the paleo-related vidoes that you guys have been uploading. Keep them coming. It has inspired me to try to make some videos of my own. Thanks.
