Materials and techniques
Materials
Everything in the model hall supports model making and form studies.
The materials used are mostly basic materials such as foam, cardboard, wood and wood-like materials. All tools and equipment in the hall are suited to these materials. We do not have many tools to work with other materials, such as stone or steel. Please ask advice when working with unfamiliar materials.
Techniques
