More Product Details

If you've ever tried to make your own grab irons by eyeballing and bending wire into shape with a plier, you already know that it's almost impossible to make any two exactly alike.

Our Grab Iron Bending Gauge has been specifically designed to quickly and easily form identical, precisely-sized grab irons from ordinary wire. Simply clamp your wire between the gauge's jaws at the selected size and bend to shape. Made of laser-engraved blackened CNC-machined steel for long life.

Bends 21 sizes from .050 inch to 1.050 inches in .050 inch increments.

Scratch Builders Dream!

A must have. This is actually the bending gauge Funaro & Camerlengo uses to produce the grab irons used on their painstakingly exact rolling stock kits. I've never had a problem with sizes when using it. Makes me wonder if the person who had problems simply didn't have the right measurements? It's a little pricey, but its laser-engraved and machined steel. I've had mine since '10. It's worth the few extra dollars. Do yourself a favor and grab one. Pun intended!

Great tool!

Good quality foam clay

Unlike any air dry clay I've used .
Very easy to manipulate , doesn't stick to your fingers .
Can be made into paper thin sheets that hold their shape .

Thick sections will take well over 24 hours to dry out ; high water weight when fresh .
Evaporation slows down considerably once the outer " crust " dries on thick pieces .

After 24 hours @ 78 degrees and about 60% humidity , the 3.1 gram sample I experimented with weighs 1.2 grams .
.. and after 48 hrs weighs just 1/2 gram ,, and I don't think it's fully dry yet .

Definitely worth the price .
Very versatile .

My only complaint is the bag it comes in .
It is a zipper lock bag but you need to remove a fair amount of the product before you'll be able to engage the zipper .
It's stuffed full when new .
I fit the bag into a plastic container ( Folgers coffee 43.5oz can ) with an inch of water at the bottom to ensure it doesn't dry out until I use enough to be able to close the bag .
Most likely keep it in that can regardless , just to be safe .

Quality miniature model paint

This stuff is comparable to Vallejo paints which everyone in the hobby already knows are tried and true. I honestly would not be able to tell the difference between the 2 brands looking at a finished model or trying to paint with it. The price is about the same but this includes slightly bigger bottles with a better design on the lid and seem to come with a plastic mixer ball already inside but its hard to tell for sure. This paint set also includes a paint thinner and cleaner for airbrushing. Its really hard to beat the price and value of this paint set for anyone wanting to have a quality paint job on something. I would say its near impossible.
