Modelling Tip Of The Day – 62

This Modelling Tip Of The Day is an ongoing series, in which we’ll be posting a modelling tip that may be of use to the newbie right up to the seasoned modeller. Today’s tip is:

Traditional HandSaws

Don’t just rely on power tools, using the likes of traditional tools such as hand saws are just as effective. If you are on a tight budget power tools can seem expensive, so using hand tools are a much cheaper & effective option. Handsaws give you more control over how you cut & come in a wide variety of types & sizes, allowing you to do straight & curved cuts. Often it can take longer to drag out & set up a cable extension & power tool than it does to cut the material by hand. Handsaw should be in every modellers baseboard building toolkit!!
