Here's a close up of the Stupa on March 25th, fresh after being stripped of paint. You can see the caulk we'd used last year to hold it together. I knew it wasn't a good fix, but I also didn't know what else to do yet, and had to keep it intact as much as possible until I found out how to properly repair it. The caulk came out with the second application of stripper, which set the stage for real repairs...
