Probe with interchangeable tips from Model Craft

A hand tool from the range of precision probes that modelers have taken to for work a knife is too coarse for and tweezers too short. The set holds one handle and four interchangeable tips of different shapes, so instead of four separate tools you have one on the bench and change the tips as needed. The handle lies in the hand like a pencil, which is what matters in fine work: you guide the tool with your fingers rather than your whole arm and meter the pressure exactly.

Use

• Clearing burrs, remnants of plastic and dried paint out of holes, grooves and engraved lines.
• Marking a point before drilling, so that the drill does not slip on a smooth surface.
• Restoring engraved lines and seams that have disappeared under abrasive paper or under a heavier coat of paint.
• Metering and spreading a small drop of glue or putty in a place that is hard to reach.
• Holding, moving and settling small parts, photo-etched parts and decals while gluing.
• Gently separating two parts that are glued only at spots and will not take being pried apart with a knife.

Who the tool is for

For modelers building aircraft, military equipment and figures, for railroad modelers and for anyone working with small parts. It suits the building stage as well as the final touches, when the model is already painted and any coarser intervention would damage it. Because it is one handle with several tips, it saves space in the toolbox and is a practical companion to the basic kit, that is to a knife, tweezers and abrasive files.

The tips are pointed and sharp. Work away from your body, put the tool down with the tip facing away from you and keep it out of the reach of children.
