Tony Mollica Posted July 30, 2004 Share Posted July 30, 2004 Hi, You know when you re-scribe a kit, and you want to make little circular indentations to represent rivets (but don't overdo it). I want a tool that will do this neatly, and exactly the same each time. I've heard of people making them out of syringes, but I don't have the equipment to cut one of these neatly. Any ideas ? Cheers Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob MDC Posted July 30, 2004 Share Posted July 30, 2004 Hi there MDC have just got in stock the 1:32 scale rivet making tool : which will comprise template, guide and 2 punches, along with instructions (yet to be produced, it's very new) It will be designated as E32005 (well, it has to go somewhere) and we expect to sell these at £6.00 these will be followed by a similar set for 1/48th scale subjects (yet to be priced) hope this helps Margret Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisS Posted July 30, 2004 Share Posted July 30, 2004 Also there are rivet guides made for Hasegawa (availble from HLJ) that I recently purchased that are fantastic. Go to http://www.hlj.com and search for: Suguremono Tools Series Be warned however; they are not punch-tools, they are simply flexible straight and curved guides with accurately spaced grooves for hand-punching the rivets with a scriber or other such tool. I did these rivets using that toolset and a simple scribing needle: HTH~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
