To the maximum extent permitted by law, Surgical Sculpture shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of our services or reliance on our training materials.

We take steps to emphasise that sculpting tools and equipment can be sharp and so user caution is advised. Do not use the sculpting equipment if you feel you will be unable to use the equipment without risk of personal injury.

Parts used in the sculpture are small and so are unsuitable for handling by children. Please keep the sculpture and all equipment out of the reach of children at all times.

Wax sculptures are temperature sensitive and so should be protected from extremes of heat to prevent damage to your sculpture.
