Books

Over the last years we released several books to teach others how to improve their skills. The first book was released in 2014 and focused on Horns and Headdresses made of thermoplastic materials. Book 2 and 3 are a little bit more complex and explain how to work with silicone, casting resin and how to make hoof shoes and everything else you need for making a faun costume.

With our newest book New Lights you will learn everything you need to get started with animated LEDs!
