Product overview

Tamiya 74057 gathers three compact hand tools for drilling and fitting work on R/C and Mini 4WD models: a small Phillips screwdriver, a 2 mm drill bit and three reamers. The drill and screwdriver suit the 2 mm fasteners commonly used on Mini 4WD kits, while the reamers open body-mounting holes in R/C shells up to 6 mm in diameter. All five tools fit inside a dedicated carrying case.

Includes one small Phillips screwdriver.
The supplied drill bit has a diameter of 2 mm.
Three reamers are included and can enlarge holes up to 6 mm in diameter.
The reamers are intended for work such as preparing R/C body-mounting holes.

Notes · Q & A

What size drill bit do I need for pinning miniatures?

For most metal and resin minis, 0.8mm to 1.0mm suits brass rod pinning. Drop to 0.3–0.5mm for magnets and small barrel-drilling. Match the bit to your rod or magnet diameter rather than guessing, and check the product description for sizes stocked.

Why do my micro drill bits keep snapping?

Nearly always side load — the bit flexing because the pin vice isn't held straight, or forcing it through resin. Let the bit cut at its own pace, keep the vice vertical, and clear swarf often. Sub-0.5mm bits are glass-brittle.

Do I need a pin vice or can I use a powered rotary tool?

A hand-held pin vice gives the control you want for fine work and rarely melts plastic. Powered tools spin fast enough to friction-melt resin and plastic and snap small bits, so keep them for larger holes only.

How do I start a hole without the bit wandering?

Mark the centre first with a sharp blade tip or a scriber to make a small divot. That gives the bit a seat to bite into, so it starts on the mark instead of skating across a curved or glossy surface.
