The
egg
should
then
be
gently
allowed
to
fall
back
on
the
sand
out
of
the
mould;
if,
however,
it
adheres,
lightly
scrape
the
plaster
from
the
edge
of
the
mould,
and
then
shake
it
out
into
the
hollow
of
the
hand.
If,
however,
the
exact
half
of
the
egg
has
been
immersed
in
the
sand,
no
such
difficulty
will
arise;
this
shows
how
important
is
exactness
in
the
first
position
of
the
object
from
which
a
tasting
is
to
be
taken.
The
egg
being
removed
and
laid
aside,
the
moulder
casting
must
be
"trimmed;"
that
is,
the
sand
must
be
brushed
from
the
flat
surface
of
the
mould
with
a
nail-brush
very
slightly,
without
touching
the
extreme
and
sharp
edges
where
the
hollow
of
the
mould
commences.
Then
upon
the
broad
edge
from
which
the
sand
has
been
brushed,
make
four
equi-distant
hollows
(with
the
round
end
of
a
table-knife),
like
the
deep
impression
of
a
thimble's-end.
These
are
to
guide
hereafter
in
the
fixing
of
the
second
half
of
the
mould.
The
egg
should
now
be
replaced
in
the
casting,
and
the
edge
of
the
cast,
with
the
holes,
thoroughly
lubricated
with
sweet
oil,
laid
on
with
a
feather,
or
what
is
better,
a
large
camel-hair
brush.
