Senior ole salt Posted October 2, 2015 Share #1 Posted October 2, 2015 Picked up an old plastic dental mirror . Ya know the thing ya gag on when the dental people poke in your mouth with. I find it great to look in on my model build areas where i can't get my eye to bend around. What you'rs ? S.O.S.

Richard Griffith Posted October 2, 2015 Share #2 Posted October 2, 2015 SOS, looks like you are building the Providence, with a dental mirror. One of my favorite tools is a simple CA applicator I made with orthodontil wire (.010) twisted into a tiny loop and glued into a short dowel. I can place minute amounts of CA exactly where I want them. Duff Canute 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S.Coleman Posted October 27, 2015 Share #3 Posted October 27, 2015 I can't do without my tweezers. I'd have to say would be my favorite hand tool. I have straight points, 45 degree, 90 degree self locking tweezers, tweezers for decals even tweezers I have stolen from the admiral that she used to use for her eyebrows. (shhhhh) There is nothing worse than not being able to pick up, place, pull, twist,grab and insert all those tiny parts. pompey2 and Canute 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pompey2 Posted October 27, 2015 Share #4 Posted October 27, 2015 Certainly agree with the tweezers. I also find my side cut cuticle cutters invaluable. For trimming excess thread they cut well and right up to the knot. Canute 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
