I sometimes get asked what tools I use and so I thought I would do a show and tell to cover it all... These are my name's for things so don't judge to much 🤣 Here's a top 1 - 12 on what I use 😁 1 - Stanley knife - mainly used for cutting Plasticard but I turn to it for nearly everything, it's a priority! 2. Syringe full of plastic cement - this is a recent addition that I graduated to after realising there was a better way to apply it than ruining brushes... I use this solely to glue plastic to plastic. 3. Tweezers - with different ends... I have come to use these for holding everything and also because my fingers aren't as neat when covered in different cements 😂 4. Cutters or snips - again, a very recent addition in the evoloution of my tool kit and an absolute must for me. Simply because I can cut awkward things off neatly with out causing damage elsewhere... 5. Miniature Hand drill - My absolute G! Can you believe I drilled all the holes in the Thunderbird 2 hanger I made some years ago with a screwdriver... Why? 🤔 6. Steele rulers - I mean, I'm not going to draw a straight line by eye... 🤦🏻♂️ 7. Set square - this is used from time to time but makes the top 12 because it stops doubt and ensure neatness when it's required 👌 8. Gorilla Glue (the gel type) - does what I want it to do and I can control it - except when it's on me. 9. White paint pens - Yes, these are unexpectedly useful and allow me to write in white... Fantastic! 😁 10. Sharpies - no explanation needed 11. Pliers - Big tweezers as like to call them as I hold things with them a lot! 12. A3 cutting mat - very important as originally I used to make everything on the floor... Worthy mention - pair of early learning scissors... #toolkit #toolkittuesday #mytools #tools #kit #crafttools #smallscale #whatiuse #timecapsuleart #showandtell #myart #modelmaker #artist #explanation #dioramamaker #timecapsulescratchbuilder #timecapsuleart #artistshelpingartists #scalemodel #makersjourney #modelmaking #scratchbuilt #art #lettheartdothetalking #workbench #artistoninstagram #dioramaart #craftsmanship #artist #handmade https://www.instagram.com/p/CFci9apHRHT/?igshid=12ui2a55ixaxq
