(Createspace edition - Black and white version. The version with colour pictures at the back is also available on Amazon. It is of course dearer But exactly same content.) If you have ever wanted to sculpt or build in a permanent material that is extremely strong and can be moulded to any shape, ferrocement is the medium for you - and this concise book shows you how to do it all. Tools, techniques and sample projects - a garden pot, angel, dome, and more - are all logically described and illustrated. The many photos showing the building of Cafe Eutopia by the author and his family will inspire as well as inform, while the introduction and Origins story and updates on the progress of a ferrocement cafe and temple to Love, Beauty, Truth, and Freedom add a deeper dimension to this book which shows the struggle to marry an abstract ideal with a (literally) concrete realisation.About the Author:I am sometimes known (by those who approve of wizards) as The Wizard of Eutopia. I live in The Story Ark, an relocated army barracks on the main road of Kaiwaka, The Little Town of Lights - blink and you miss it, only at night you cant because it has fairy lights everywhere. For twelve years Ive been building, also on the main road (well, a little to one side of it), a sculptured ferrocement folly called Cafe Eutopia. This has been the proving ground for all the techniques in the book Fantastic Ferrocement. What is Eutopia and why should you care? Well, its an organic cafe, a temple to Love Beauty Truth and Freedom, and a bookshop - not necessarily in that order. See photos. For lots more, taken by tourists from all over the world, just enter Cafe Eutopia in Google images. The tourists love me; the locals keep asking, Whens he going to finish the darned thing? Unbeknown to them, for even more than those twelve years Ive been also building a much more ambitious, unseen folly - a fantasy epic named (in a dream after I failed to come up with a title) THE APPLES OF AEDEN. Ive also written a few other books - fiction, non-fiction and some in between. All published under my imprint Eutopia Press.
