❓ Common Questions
Is this set suitable for beginners?
Yes – contains exactly what's needed for assembly, cleaning, sanding, and finishing even your first models. Compact and complete.
Do these tools work on resin and metal?
Yes – the knife and files handle any material: plastic, resin, thin metal sheet. The cutters work best on plastic sprues.
What are the package dimensions?
Weight approximately 400g, dimensions: 15 × 10 × 5 cm. Compact enough for storage or travel.
Does the set include spare knife blades?
The base set contains 1 modeling knife – replacement blades are available separately. The included blade lasts through many builds with proper care.
Sprue cutters or a hobby knife — what do I actually need?
Cutters remove parts from the sprue cleanly; the knife trims the leftover nub and mould lines. You'll want both — they do different jobs.
What's the difference between single-blade and double-blade cutters?
Single-blade cutters shear against a flat anvil for an ultra-clean cut with less stress on the plastic; double-blade cutters are tougher for general work.
How do I keep tools in good condition?
Cut plastic only (never metal sprues or wire) with precision cutters, replace knife blades often, and keep files clear with a brass brush.
