Do you have a favourite tool? Maybe an ol' faithful one? An extremely useful one? Whatever!


I have a scalpel I bought in a local art shop way back in the mists of time. It must be a good 30 years old and has never let me down and has been used for just about every task I can think of.
 
tooth pick............get through hundreds.......glue application to scrapers to stirrers to paint stands ...ive even used them to make axles

I have to agree with Paul, I use a hell of lot too, same uses too.
 
Mine would have to be toothpicks and my craft knife. Had it quite a few years now.
 
Tough one. 


I could be tempted to say my favourite tool, or most used tool is the Internet ! I use it for research, kit reviews, finding paint, everything imaginable to help in my builds.


tools on the bench... I rather like my little hold and fold; the bug. But the ones I use the most are my Swann and Morten scalpels .good in the hand, flat so they don't roll off the desk and tail heavy, so if you drop it, it's not the pointy bit that hits your foot. (More often than not :/  )

Favourite Tool - Tamiya Basic File, sanding those nubs, putty filled sections, and even hardened glue.


Most Useful Tool - Airbrush.
 
I think one of my favourite tools would be the citadel mould line remover makes everything a doddle, previous posts have mentioned other tools.... hang on a minute Im saying the whole tool box! Couldn't live with out it always the one tool you need.


Cheers,Ben
