In 1996 Stracoland followed in Colmnitz, today part of the municipality of Klingenberg, with factory outlet, show workshop and adventure world; in 1998 production was moved to Hallbach. Besides pyramids, candle arches and incense smokers, the company also made musical boxes. Wood-shaving trees are a speciality of the wood art from the region around Seiffen: from a conical turned blank, the craftsman lifts shaving after shaving with a chisel until the curled branches form.
