We held the latest Kan-Kan Lecture Series "Glass Engraving & Fossils" on November 23^rd.

Participants used a router to engrave designs on a glass. The intent was to have the participants look at reference books and rock specimens while engraving their glasses.

The Samani Folk Museum introduced fossils found in Samani. The participants found the sand-dollar sea urchin fossil so interesting, that they couldn't believe it was an actual sea urchin!

Participants were invited to look at the books and handle the fossils (ammonite, inoceramus, sea lily, etc).

The participants engraved many different designs into their glasses, such as Mt. Apoi, food, animals, and even musical instruments. Everyone enjoyed talking about what they would use the glasses for, like drinking barley tea or making it into a lantern.

PS: I carved a dinosaur on my glass and wanted to use it to make pudding. I was looking forward to excavating the dinosaur while I ate, but unfortunately, the white carving did not show up well against the yellow pudding.
