As part of Elfin’s Great Plan for 2011™*, I will needs some tools for making small scale models of stuffs. Will be mainly using wood really. Some metal and plastic now and then. Fraid I can’t go into details here; all too secret. Don’t want the likes of Binners and Winegums nicking my ideas, the bastids.
So, what sort of tools should I be investing in? I have a proper meaty drill, a crappy cordless one, a knackered Dremel type thing, junior hacksaw handle, hand held sander, jigsaw, mitre saw + block, the usual hammers and screwdrivers and stuff like that.
What other tools should I be considering? What things are actually useful, and what is needless tat? What secret little specialist modelmakers’ gizmos should I investigate?
Pictures are especially welcome cos I’ll never remember the names of things.
Tank Yoo! 😀
