Questions & Answers
Gunpla gundams are taken apart with this tool.
While the sprue cutters are for plastic, the rest should work for metal models as well.
Truth be told, I am not sure. Although it is a very good kit and it's all working as it should, it does have some slight shortcomings. The product is fantastic!
Selected User Reviews For Rustark 21Pcs Modeler Basic Tools Craft Set Hobby Building Tools Kit for Gundam Car Model Building
Having to use fingernail clippers and paper from a drum sander to remove the pieces from the runners ans the nubs from the pieces is a real pain, but this kit has proven to be an invaluable tool. Watching your productivity go way up and your frustration go way down when you use the right tools is a great feeling. This is definitely a good deal for anyone who is in the market for plastic modeling tools. By purchasing this set you will save a great deal of Briefly, here are the items you receive There is one small pair of dikes in this scenic area In the United States they call these snippers or nippers, but their proper names are diagonal cutters. I like the way they feel, and they are very sharp so they are suitable for cutting through plastic runners, or metal runners if you prefer that sort As an added bonus, the grips are comfortable. There are two rulers on the table That's all well. There is a ruler in front of me. Models made from boxes are not at all clear to me what the point of this is. Perhaps you should try to customize your kit if you are really trying. Since it is a sturdy metal ruler and has a straight edge, it is not a bad tool to have on hand. The following five jeweler files are included For delicate metal work, small files are commonly used. In addition to different grit sizes, there are a variety of shapes that can be used to reach extremely hard-to-reach places. The needle tip file is the most precise of them all. I am not sure if this is intentional or a product of poor They do a good job at gripping rough metal rods, so these will serve you just fine.
5 There is probably too much use of tweezers here. It could possibly have been done just fine with one needle point pair, and one angled pair, but the kit includes three needle point pairs, one angled pair, and one rounded tip pair. It should not be a surprise that these are useful, but you seem to be getting a lot of them. A screwdriver and a screwdriver bit There is one Phillips per My experience with screws is limited, so I have never built a kit with screws. The very fine thread seems kind of pointy to me. I work a lot with tiny parts in computers, and these would not be able to do the job. There is a precision set in my possession that rivals these. The following is a list of the items in the separator The offending color is If all you have ever built is a Lego set, you know how frustrating it is to separate two pieces from one another, and how damaging it is to your fingers. This also applies to model kit pieces, with the exception that they can be thin and easily breakable if the edges are sharp. This tool works great for pieces you need to get back together without having to sand yourself to look like an evil wizard as you do it. I've seen videos of model makers with long fingers for this purpose, so I use this tool when I need pieces back together. On one side are coarse and fine grit, while on the other is a tri-granular It takes guts. There are three parts to the As I suspected it would be, the grit was thicker than I expected, and mine was stuck to the fluffy middle with weak glue. The grit gets finer, then finer, then buffs until it reaches a very fine texture. It helped me smooth out a piece that I wanted to smooth and I was very pleased with how smooth the result was. Sanding sponge - 1 A triathlon basically has the same rules as the triathlon Only the very fine buffing grit is used on the grit stick. In reality, "Very finer" isn't the most accurate definition of grit, but this stuff does not have a number, so I cannot give my opinion. "Hobby knife" + replacement blades for 1 piece I think it's X-rated Without a logo, an act knife is a blank canvas. This set comes with a cover to protect the point, as well as replacement blades, in case the handle blows off the one in the handle and the tip breaks. These are the X-ray films I have These blades and knives are act brand knives, and I can speak with confidence that they will cut plastic and make you bleed just as well as the name brand.
1 cleaning cloth. Out of everything I see, this thing seems the most out of place, except for the ruler and the screwdrivers. My inhibitions aren't based on my misunderstanding of how useful a cleaning cloth is, but rather on the fact that it is incredibly soft and cute. It's best to dust off anything that's been properly sanded, because I doubt that this thing can handle being in contact with a rough edge for much longer. I feel that this package is great value for the money, especially when you compare it to the prices of some of these items Your money would be better served by buying.
How I wish to express myself. A good first impression comes in the form of the precision and quality made clippers. You cut a smooth and clean edge from the runner when you snip it. Their service will be of great value to you. I had the same hand tweezers as well, very accurate and well-made. The plastic cap on each tweezer prevents the tips from being knocked around and keeps the tweezers from being lost. If you want to buy these at a hardware or modeling store, that is fine, but you can also get them at the Lego store too. You should be able to make good use of the ruler since it is well made. Remove the screwdrivers and throw them away. It may be a good idea to purchase a pair of quality minis So you'll have to throw out the two screwdrivers once you buy a series of quality screwdrivers and therefore the two that come with this kit, as well as the Star drivers that do not come with it. Neither will it cost you a lot. If you search in Amazon, you will find kits that include all the In the handle of the razor knife is a blade, and the top of the handle is a cap protecting As part of the kit, you also get 4 spare blades. There are no more files left. The kit is not suitable for them. Modeling kits need a lot more granularity than the files provided. The first thing you will do is torn holes in your fender when you file a nub down. This kit requires a kit with a bit of grit too aggressive for the purpose we want it The files are the main complaint I have with this kit. It is not advisable to use these files to file smooth plastic model pieces, you will regret it shortly. Once you purchase this kit, you will have the opportunity to test out what it can do for you. Unfortunately, I don't have these small files anymore, but I have a number of other small ones I can use. Except for the files, I can say that I will use most of the items and they were worth the price.
The majority of what is in this kit is made pretty cheaply. As an example, let's look at the nail emery board that is included in the package, but you can purchase one from a beauty store that is much better than what's included there. Files are made of scrap metal that is attached to a shaft to make something that does not file, but just goesuges While the nippers and tweezers are decent, they are a bit pricey. In spite of being student grade, the hobby knife is better than a discount store knife. In the end, about half of the kit is useful, but you'll probably upgrade the majority of what is in the kit in the very near future as you become frustrated with its.
The small plastic box (way too small) was broken on one side (the ruler protruded out), scratched up all over the place, and bent a bit at This is very possible for the break to be related to shipping, but the rest of the box was a mess and the tools were dirty (had some kind of dust or dirt It seems that I got a used one when I paid for a new one. A piece of "sealing tape" was on the x-ray machine As well as the knife, the act was My guess is that I received a used kit because it was shipped from Amazon. I also feel like the tools are of poor quality. They feel like they may break if I apply too much pressure. this kit seems like it would be best suited for making smaller I was very dissatisfied with the quality of this kit, and it came scratched up. New items shouldn't come scratched up, and there were other kits for similar prices, so I may order again in the future.
The Rustark 21Pcs Modeler Basic Tools Craft Set Hobby Building Tools Kit For Gundam Car Model Building has been on my desk for over a month now, and I just wanted to let you know that I am still extremely impressed with everything it includes. No matter your level of experience or knowledge, this kit has all the tools you will need. A lot of people are talking about the quality of the double-sided tape. We provide sanding/polishing sticks with both sides. There are two ways to look at it A two-sided black sanding stick can be a bit aggressive so you might want to test it on a plastic sprue before using it on your plastic model but it still works well. There are two ways to look at it It's the sanding/polishing stick I use the most on my Gunpla, and with it, I can sand down a plastic nub and polish the plastic piece like a pro. I am going to use I am very pleased with both the Quality of the whole kit, as well as, the Quality versus the price. I would recommend this kit to anyone, no matter what their needs may be.
