Hey,


I use this stuff all the time. The oven temp is 230 regardless of pony type. For thicker pieces go for half an hour. I used a half hour when I sculpted a male nose on a pony as well as when I repositioned a leg. For thin pieces I go about 10 min at a time and it works well. The pony will be soft so do not touch it till it cools. Otherwise the hard fimo and the soft plastic dont work and you could end up breaking or cracking your piece.
