Sci-Fi Scratchbuilding/Kitbashing Tutorial, part 1

The Chopper is like a paper cutter for plastic. I use it to chop up little rectangles of styrene strip to create repetition (important in scratchbuilding) and to create surface detail, well at least I do. Haven’t seen anyone else use lots of little rectangles to create detail, but that’s just me. :slight_smile:

Thanks John, looks like some Micro-Mark tools will be in my near future - they have a lot of cool stuff. I’ve always seen their adds and thought their tools looked really neat, but browsing their site I saw much more stuff that I wanted.

Wait til you get their catalog-
You’ll be all “I want this and this and this and…”
