Hobby Tools

Hobby tools are what you use and keep at the bench: nippers to take parts off the runner, sanding sticks and files to clean them up, tweezers and cement to put them together, and brushes and airbrushes to paint them. This page carries the makers we restock: GodHand and Mr. Hobby (GSI Creos), with DSPIAE, SPARMAX, Gaahleri, Wave and Hasegawa Trytool.

Shop tools by job

Cut

A single-blade nipper leaves a clean cut and a small nub, which means less sanding and no white stress marks. See GodHand nippers, including the Ultimate Nipper, plus Mr. Hobby line chisels and hobby knives.

Sand & file

Work up through the grits to erase nub marks and seam lines: GodHand Kamiyasu sanding sticks and sponges, FF boards and GodHand files, plus Mr. Hobby fine sandpaper.

Assemble

Mr. Cement, Mr. Masking, putty, clips and GodHand tweezers and pliers for small parts and stickers.

Drill

GodHand pin vises and bits for drilled detail and opened-up vents.

Brush paint

GodHand Brushwork and Mr. Brush paint brushes for detail painting, dry-brushing and touch-ups.

Airbrush

Mr. Procon Boy airbrushes, Mr. Linear compressors, SPARMAX and Gaahleri airbrushes and compressors, hoses and spray booths.

Airbrush spare parts

The largest group in this range is Mr. Hobby airbrush spare parts listed by part number (needles, piston packings, push buttons and other parts for the Procon Boy series), so a worn part can be replaced without buying a new airbrush. Search by part number, for example PS270-11.
