Customer Reviews

Absolute waste of money.

Only a couple of black and white project pictures so pixelated you can't see any detail. Even the cover pictures are pixelated so the book looks like it was printed on an old dot matrix printer. Lots of text but not enough to tell me how to make anything. Worthless for a beginner.
