High Precision Micro-Shear

Model Craft High Precision Micro-Shear - precision micro shears

Micro shears are a modeling tool with fine, precisely mating jaws meant for cutting small parts cleanly off sprues, photo-etched frets, wires or gates. The edges cut flush, so a minimum of burrs is left after the cut and slow cleaning up falls away. Thanks to its slim design the tool also suits cramped places.

Use

• Cut the part off as close to it as possible and then only lightly clean up the rest of the gate.
• Suited to plastic gates, thin wires and fine photo-etched parts.
• Do not use them on thick steel wire or hard metal, as the edges may be damaged.

Who the tool is for

• Builders of plastic models of every category.
• Modelers working with photo-etched and fine parts.
• Anyone who wants clean cuts with no burrs.

This is a tool, not a model. Handle the edges carefully and protect the tips of the jaws.
