Specialist Craft Tools For Photo-Etched Parts
Designed For Precision Cutting
Photo-etched parts allow you to add exceptional detail to your model, however,
they can be difficult to work with for inexperienced users. In order to make
using photo-etched parts easy, Tamiya releases a fantastic range of tools
specially designed for use with stainless and brass photo-etched sheets.
Designed for ease of use and long-lasting quality, all tools have been fully
tested by Tamiya s very own master modelers.
The difficult task of trying to cut out photo-etched parts with a modeling knife
is now a thing of the past thanks to this handy set of scissors. Specially designed
for use with photo-etched parts, the sharply pointed tip can cut into the
narrowest joints, preventing accidental bending of parts during cutting. The
blade of the scissors also features a
curved tip,preventing blocking of
view when cutting out fine parts.
With this clear view you can cut as
close to the part as possible, without
fear of error. These handy scissors
also come with a safety cap, keeping
the blades protected, ensuring long
term use.
No Scratches
All Sizes
Long-nosed pliers specially designed
for use with photo-etched parts.
Smoothed down nose allows you to
apply the necessary strength to
obtain an accurate bend without leaving any ugly scratches. Angled nose has
been designed to allow you to bend past 90deg, compensating for the spring
back effect which occurs after bending metal. Guaranteeing precision bending
for all sized pieces, the tip of the nose is designed for use with small parts and
side designed for use with large parts. Easy grip handle provides comfortable
use whilst maintaining premium control.
