About product

Metal Handle (orange version) — a metal handle for scribers

This is a modeling tool, specifically a handle for holding the interchangeable scribing tips from the Border Model range. It is not a finished tool with a blade: the tips are not part of this item, unless stated otherwise, and are bought separately. The exact clamping range and the dimensions of the handle are given by the manufacturer in the technical data.

Use

  • Restoring and deepening panel lines on plastic parts
  • Scribing new lines, doors and transitions after filling
  • Using several widths of tip with a single handle
  • Telling tools apart by color on the workbench

Why a color version makes sense

Anyone who scribes regularly usually does not stop at a single width of tip. Swapping tips in one handle during the work takes time and risks crushing a thin tip on the bench. It is more practical to have several handles and tell them apart by color — orange is besides impossible to miss on a bench, which is handy on a tool whose tip should always be in view. The technique itself does not change: hold the handle square to the surface, scribe with several light strokes toward you and let the weight of the tool do the work. Metal has better balance than plastic, so the tip holds the line even without pressure. Set the line out in advance with masking tape or a flexible ruler and sweep the dust away with a brush as you go.

Who the tool is for

For modelers who restore panel lines after sanding and filling, and for anyone who wants a set of handles with different tips ready on the bench and to tell them apart at a glance.

The handle itself has no blade, but the tips it holds are very sharp. Work away from your body, put the tips away covered and keep the tool out of the reach of children.

FAQ

No, unless stated otherwise. The item is the handle alone; the interchangeable tips are bought separately.

It lets you tell several handles fitted with different tips apart at a glance and saves swapping tips during the work.

Set the line out with masking tape or a flexible ruler, hold the tool square and scribe with several light strokes toward you, never with one heavy one.

Yes, it is simple to use. But try the scribing technique on a waste part from the sprue before you start work on a model.
