Heat Activated Materials

topic posted Sun, February 10, 2008 - 7:00 AM by  Brian
Hello from the East Coast- I just happen to see a recent post inquiring about FOSSHAPE. Yes, Dazian Fabrics www.dazian.com in N. Hollywood has it and although available in a few other places, I think Dazian has best pricing on both FOSSHAPE and WONDERFLEX.

Both unique heat activated materials are "limited by your imagination" type products that I worked on from the development and mfg side of things and introduced to Dazian a few years ago. Unfortunately a lot of folks are not aware of them. If you want more info, have questions or need a couple of samples swatches to experiment with....... get in touch with me and I'll do my best to accommodate.

      Yes, that large dagon puppet was very well done. Although I didn't see it first hand, I saw various photos during construction. FOSSHAPE was heated to shrink and form over a wire frame........ so it was really light weight. If your creative......you need to try this stuff sometime. Email me off line with a mailing address and I would be glad to send you some small swatches to play with ....if your interested.
