Tips for use
Use the tutorials as a workshop guide
The tutorials in Prosthetics Magazine are designed to be reproducible. Read them with your materials at hand and identify the equivalent products available in the Feroca catalogue before you start working. This way you can follow each step without having to improvise.
Complement theory with real practice
The magazine provides the technical and conceptual framework, but mastery of techniques comes with practice. Combine reading each article with workshop sessions using the recommended materials. Feroca's workshops and video tutorials are an ideal resource to reinforce what you learn from each issue.
Use it as a materials reference
The technical data and material descriptions featured in the articles help you understand why each product is chosen for each application. Take note of the properties mentioned (hardness, transparency, working time) and refer back to them when you need to choose a material for your own project.
