About product

RP Toolz jig for making micro rings

This is a modeling tool, not a kit. The tool, made of stainless steel and about 104 mm long, carries stepped mandrels on which wire is wound into a ring of the diameter you want. The range covers roughly 1 to 6 mm in steps of 0.2 mm, so you make a ring of exactly the size a detail needs and, above all, the same one over and over. A ring twisted by hand tends to be oval and irregular, and on a model that shows at once.

Use

  • Making eyes, lashings and connecting rings for cables and rigging.
  • Details of ship models: circular eyes, hinges, anchor fittings.
  • Accessories for military vehicles: grab handles, eyes for tow cables, attachment points.
  • Small rings for figures, dioramas and modeling scratchbuilding.

Work tips

Choose soft wire, ideally copper or brass, because hard steel wire is harder to shape and puts needless strain on the tool. Wind the wire firmly and without slack, so that the ring does not spring back. If you need several identical rings, wind a longer spiral onto a mandrel and cut the individual turns off one by one, and the result is then uniform. The ends of a ring can be soldered or secured with a drop of super glue. Wipe the tool after work and store it dry.

Who the tool is for

For advanced modelers, builders of ships, vehicles and dioramas who make their own details and do not want to rely only on the contents of a box. RP Toolz is a Hungarian maker of precision modeling tools.

Wire springs and its ends are sharp. Use eye protection while cutting and shaping it.

FAQ

The range is roughly 1 to 6 mm in steps of 0.2 mm, so it covers the great majority of modeling details.

No. This is a tool. You choose the wire yourself, ideally soft copper or brass, which shapes well.

Wind a longer spiral onto a mandrel and cut the individual turns off one by one. All the rings then have the same diameter.

Most often for the rigging of ship models, for eyes for tow cables on vehicles and for small hinges and grab handles when building your own details.
