The sandblasting ended (finally...even if not successfully...), we could all spend time learning about casting from molds with Ani Sherab. She made the molds last week, and now she working hard to get all 16 lotus petals done, not just finish making them, but actually have them on the Stupa by the end of the day! This all happened yesterday, you can see the end of the sandblasting below this posting on yesterday's entry. I posted these on two separate days primarily because we worked so late last night to accomplish the goal...getting the lotus petals on the Long Life Stupa!
