Milling Logs from Lower Khandroling for the Khandroling Living Center

Report from Yuchen Namkhai Here are some pictures of today’s milled wood at the new “Khandroling Living Center” site. It’s hemlock softwood that will be used in construction. There are some boards and beams that will sit there for 1 year to dry and then they’ll be ready to use. (Right now there’s a nice smell since they’re full of sap).
