New Tools

I got a couple of new hobby tools this past week.  The F-clamps were under half price at Canadian Tire which meant they were only about $10.  I think I can use those a lot in my scale modeling.   You  may wonder how a blusher brush could be a hobby tool.  Well, I leaned in the past month or so that during a long cold winter with the furnace on all of the time, there is a lot of dust.  If you don’t clean that dust off of your models before painting, you get crud in your paint job or clear coat.  Yes, this fool let that happen.  The blusher brush is a super soft brush that I’ll use to dust my models after they have been sitting before I do any painting from now on.  At around $6 at Wal-Mart, it’s a lot cheaper than a brush produced by a hobby company.

Just so you know, I’m still working on the X-wing and I’m hoping to have a post later in the week.
