Premium Tool Set B for plastic model

The Mineshima Premium Tool Set B modeling tool set

A set of tools for building plastic models from the Japanese brand Mineshima, designated as variant B of the premium series. The premium series exists in two packages, A and B, which are sold separately. What exactly variant B contains is stated on the box; compare the composition of the two variants against it.

What the set aims at

• Equipping a workshop for building plastic kits in a single purchase.
• A gift for a modeler who is only now acquiring tools.
• The premium series of a maker specializing in modeling instruments.
• Supplementing existing equipment with a second set.

What to expect from modeling tools

Mineshima offers sprue cutters, files, tweezers, pin vises, measuring tools and cutting instruments, so a set from the premium series falls into the field the maker has long worked in. Regardless of the composition, several principles hold that will lengthen the life of the tools: cut only plastic with sprue cutters, run files in one direction and clean them with a brush, and do not use tweezers as a pry bar. Good tools survive dozens of kits, while bad handling destroys them over a single one.

Who the set is for

For beginning modelers who need the basic equipment together, and for the advanced who are looking for a gift or a replacement for worn pieces. Before buying, please go through the composition stated on the box.
