stencils

I realize this is a 'glass' newsgroup but could someone point me to a
sandblast/stone newsgroup? If not, could someone recommend where I could buy
stencils for sandblasting into stone or rock? Also, I am looking for a good
FAQ/tutorial that would tell me all the tools/how to's about sandblasting
into stone. Thanks a lot.

There is a Yahoo group called "sandcarvers" that my be helpful to you.

For a Forum check out:

For general info and the odd tutorial try:

www.sandcarver.org

I use UltraPro Blue from Photobrasive for all my glass work. Don't engrave
on
stone or anything else so I cannot vouch for it on those substrates but it
works well on glass and crystal.

I think they (or some associate company) can supply stencils to from your
artwork.
