MODELING AND CRAFTS TOOLS: MICRO PIPE BENDER 2 MM
We present to you one of our modeling and crafts tools. The Micro Pipe Bender 2 mm (27323) outer diameter. Made of high quality photo-etched and brass, it lets you to build your models in the most appropriate way. The tube bender is ideal for comfortable and easy work with cylindrical parts of scale models and crafts. A magnificent example of its usefulness is that it allows you to replace the wires that hold the lanterns of naval models with the tube and run the cables, so you can put light on those lights.
If the modeler bends a tube directly, it is clamped and does not bend, thus blocking the interior and leaving a bend that prevents any object from passing through the interior of the tube. With this fantastic Micro Pipe Bender, you can bend them and give them a curved shape, so the interior is free, not hindered by the passage of any object that is introduced.

SUPPORT FOR PAINTING SCALE MODEL FIGURES
The last one of the new modeling and crafts tools that we show you is fundamental if the modeler wants the finishes of the figurines to be optimal. With the wooden support for painting figures (27640) you can characterize with the appropriate colors, comfortably and without getting your hands dirty with paint, the figures of each scale model that you have built. Assembly required.
It is composed of 20 plywood discs with a diameter of 22 mm and 20 round birch wood rods with a diameter of 10 mm and 45 mm length. The support requires assembly, so we also recommend the use of cyanoacrylate (27621) or white glue (27602), depending on how quickly you want the adhesive to dry. If the modeler takes care of the support, it can be used on numerous occasions even if it gets stained with paint and glue.
Next, we show you on video how to easily paint the figures with this great and creative product:
