Hey Folks,
With the wonderful responses to the Branchline "Blueprint Series" [first I want to say THANK YOU to all of you for such terrific input], we plan to buy a few of their cars for a nice fall project.
We want to buy a couple of new tools for the effort.
Could you please offer a [thumbs up or a different item recommendation] on these considerations from the Walthers catalog before we make the order.
p. 932 ..... Xuron #791-90036 [good sprue cutter?] p. 920 ..... Mascot #230-503, Mascot #230-512 [good tweezer selection?] p. 888 ..... Testors #704-3502 [good glue option via bottle?]
We have used the Testors #704-3501.
It adheres beautifully. The hassle for me is the endless hair-like strands that form as you draw the glue from the tube. They float about and land on the model. I then spend time with tweezers removing them.
Is there a trick to avoiding these glue strands and/or is there a glue that dries clear but does not create these glue strands?
Thanks So Much! Matt and Kathleen
