Taking A Rubbing
• White paper with black wax block (or large crayon) best choice
• Thick paper like grocery sacks are too thick to get a proper rub
• Butcher paper with wax side works well with moist stones
• Please avoid using pencil, chalk or anything that could rub off

For shape-carved designs, we need a rubbing and a good
close-up photograph of design to be shaped.
