michaelp Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 Can anyone one recommend a good set of modelling tweezers for working with decals and small parts etc? Thanks in advance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Kris Posted September 22, 2013 RMweb Premium Share Posted September 22, 2013 I use a variety of tweezers, generally the generic "medical" versions. The very fine ones can be great for small details but the tips are easily bent / broken. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
michaelp Posted September 22, 2013 Author Share Posted September 22, 2013 Do you have the name of a supplier/web site? Michael Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffP Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 Loads on that auction site. I've bought sets, and some locking forceps too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

m mcdermott Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 for decals I use tweezers from the stamp shops as they don't have the ridged gripers so don't damage the decal Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokebox Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 I got a nice pair of fine pointed ones from my local model shop quite cheaply. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

N15class Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 I use No 5 watchmakers ones, but be careful they go through skin very easily. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
