Workshop


In addition to the the model kits and glue, you will need some basic tools for building models. Also, overtime you will find yourself buying tools for specific modelling tasks. I've categorized the tools that I have acquired to making modelling easier, more enjoyable and safer.

  • Note:ALL tools are potentially dangerous. After all a tool is used for cutting and scraping materials. So as This Old House's Norm Abram would say "Always check and follow manufacture's safety recommendations. And always wear the most important safety item, your safety glasses".

    This is a hobby and it should give you pleasure, not pain. Don't use a tool for a job it wasn't designed for.
  • This is also a hobby where hazardous materials are used. Things such and glue, paint, etc. must be used as directed to minimize any chance of being harmed. Please read product labels, especially those bearing this symbol: Danger!
