binaries. If you're simply starting out with constructing your own air wave managed automobile afterwards we could finalise to operate the apparatus .

Since you are a beginner, I would recommend buying the tools you find you need as you progress. I could suggest planes and chisels, but these tend to be expensive unless you are prepared to make your own.

But that too requires other tools A vicious cycle. The most valuable tool, I find though, is one you probably already have And that is patience. Wooden ships do not come together over a couple of nights of construction, but only after months. I am not saying this to overwhelm you, but rather, to view each little task as a model in and of itself.

It is much more satisfying to complete a part and see it as an accomplishment, than to look at the whole and wonder what could have possessed you to take on such a monumental task. For instance, view each individual plank as an accomplishment unto itself, and you will have a lot more fun, and will be more likely to complete the model.

I wish you luck with your first build, and look forward to you build log here so we can follow your progress. Each month you stay with this hobby, your stash of tools will increase. There's is always a better tool. You start off with a box cutter and tweezer but the end is never in sight.

Just ask the wife of a model ship builder. One of the tools I use most often is cheap and home made. Get some 10mm dowel and a pack of domestic sewing needles, chop up the dowel into handle size pieces 60mm is OK , drill a suitable hole in the centre of one end then glue in a needle with CA aka Superglue. The resulting tools are incredibly useful for applying tiny drops of glue keep the end clean with a knife and for generally positioning and poking things.

I know this will add to your shopping list, and I agree with the above lists, especially a good xacto handle and blades jewelers files and rotary tool I would add good chisels as a first or second step. I have no idea what brands are available in South Africa, but Hirsch, Veritas and Sorby are three brands that are quite good, and there are any more.

You do not need many. I use 3, 6, 12, and 25 mm for almost all l my chisel needs. A good sharpening stone and jig will keep you in razor sharp cutting mode for years to come.

As with anything else, you get what you pay for. Welcome to the Hobby!! I would add a good light and magnification. A table top swivel lamp with a built in magnifier will work but a headset such as an Optivisor is better still.

Being able to see what you are working is very critical and no matter how good your eyesight is, staring at these tiny pieces or trying to tie miniature knots will strain your eyes and cause them to hurt in time. Model Ship World as one of the best tools for research.

Wow thank you everyone, really great ideas! I'm going to buy a couple of things from Amazon today. Razor saws and a mitre box are useful. Masking tape often can be used to hold down a piece that's being drilled. You usually want to hold the piece being drilled onto a backing piece so the drill bit doesn't punch out and mar the underside of the piece.

Tape is quick and strong for this. Don't use your shirt-tail as a workbench. I agree with those who say buy what you when you need it and buy the best quality you can afford. Buying cheap tools usually means you end up buying them twice. Though not a tool, my strongest recommendation is that you start a MSW biuld log, you will overwhelmed with sound advice, great suggestions about technique, and an amazing number of friends.

Thanks, my husband can get that for me for my birthday. Thanks John. I've been trying to buy quality tools -I hate flimsy hard-to-use stuff. In my city there's just one hobby shop and their range isn't extensive. As a result I've bought most of my stuff online and it's been difficult to judge. The AL stuff has been very disappointing at that price. LOL I've been working with a board on my lap on the couch. I think once I start a larger ship I will need a workbench.

I am looking to get a good vise to hold the workpiece,can you recommend anything? Name brands would be useful. I live in KZN. There are a few online stores that I've found but they seem few and far between. I would love suggestions if you know anywhere. Proxxon and Panavise are two brands of hobby sized vices off the top of my head, Cindy.

We have a MSW sponsor selling Proxxon; check him out. I posted a link to this tabletop workbench a few weeks ago. Note that it has a vise, and other clamping fixtures, and mounts for a small anvil and rotary tool. I've intended to make this for my daughter an aspiring jeweler , and i guess i should get to it. Instead of a clamping block on the bottom as shown in the plans for clamping it in big workbench vise , I will pad underside with cork and then use 'L'-bolts to clamp it to a dining room table.

The clamps will be similar to those used on an architect's lamp. Does anyone use a mini mitre block useful for edges of deck hatchet and edging of gun ports? Never find doing it by eye gives a good finish. Hello Cindy. Nice to have you here! You can post now and register later.

If you enjoy building ship models that are historically accurate as well as beautiful, then The Nautical Research Guild NRG is just right for you. The pin vise holds the drill bits for drilling tiny holes, a common task in ship model building.

Bottom left is a pair of bent-nose locking tweezers. These come in handy for holding small parts when painting or applying them to your model. The locking sort prevent a brief relaxation of your hand sending a tiny part down to the floor, where it may never be found. To the right of the tweezers is a small block of beeswax in a plastic holder. Rigging thread is drawn across the beeswax to reduce its fuzz, as well as to help it lay more realistically.

The smaller square you can find, the better. Some entry-level ship model kits either come with tools such as the Artesania Latina kit at right , or can be purchased with a tool set. The only differences in the set pictured here with our tools above is the addition of a couple needle files, a magnifying glass with part-holding clips, a wire cutter handy mainly for removing cast-metal parts from a sprue , paint, and a paint brush.

A good source for model tools is Model Expo Storefront on Amazon. Search eBay for Hobby Tool Kits. Check out our page on Different Types of Tweezers! Please Take Note: When you click links to various merchants on this site and make a purchase, this can result in this site earning a commission.
