Getting started

My first post is going to cover the tools you will need to get started in the hobby, your tools are a very important these are the things that will help you to build your model like everything else in life the more you spend on your tools the better you will get, to start with you will need some basic tools.


Sprue/side cutters, these are used to remove the model parts ready for assembly
Files, these are used to remove any flash or materiel from the model parts
Craft knife/scalpel, for cutting parts and removing material from the parts
Tweezers, for handling small parts

These are all the tools you will need to get started.


In my next blog post I will go into using these tools and show you what thay are used for.
