In Topic: How do you *cleanly* cut aluminum or brass sheet?

Can I score it, then bend it to break it off?

 

With aluminum sure, brass may not like to snap as readily. You'll be surprised how easily thin sheet will cut, one of two passes with a new blade.

Thanks for posting pics of your kit Jens!

 

That body looks nicely done, I wonder if any of the old tooling from these long out-of-production kits is still in the hands of manufacturers, or destroyed? :(

If it's thin, you'll get the best cuts without curling with a new #11 blade and a straight edge as a guide...watch your digits though! :o

That is SOOOO cool Sam! B) Might have to check 'em out at some point ;)

 

It's great that you're doing something about keeping up your health after your scare, glad you are OK!

Ken, that Testors (Gunze) styrene must be of an odd formula because my Testors GTS body is ruined too :(

 

 

Chuck, your Pantera with opening doors is very cool, and who knew some company did one that way? Thanks for posting!

 

Body looks very accurately shaped, any identifying markings on it anywhere to hint as to manufacturer if you can't remember?
