Model Saws and Blades – Tools for Precise Cutting
In the world of model making, precision is key. Every detail, every cut line must be made with the utmost care to achieve a perfect finish. In the "Model Saws and Blades" category, you will find tools that give you complete control over every cut, whether you're working with plastics, wood, or metal. We offer products from the renowned manufacturer Tamiya, known for its reliability and top-quality tools.
Types of Model Saws – Choosing the Right Tool
The model saws available in our selection differ in shape, blade thickness, and the materials they are made from. This variety allows every modeler to find the perfect tool suited to the specifics of their project.
Photo-Etched Model Saws by Tamiya
One of the most popular tools in this category are Tamiya's photo-etched model saws. Made from acid-resistant stainless steel, these saws are ideal for precise cutting of materials like plastic, Lexan, or ABS. Thanks to the photo-etching production technology, the saw blades are exceptionally thin and sharp, allowing for extremely precise cuts without the risk of damaging delicate model parts.
For example, the Tamiya 74094 Photo-Etched Model Saws are indispensable when working with plastics, offering exceptional durability. Their thin blades allow for smooth and precise cutting, even in tough materials like Lexan, which is often used in model car bodies.
Saws with Replaceable Blades
For modelers who work with a variety of materials, we recommend model saws with replaceable blades, such as the Tamiya 74024. These tools are equipped with extremely sharp, thin blades that can be swapped out when needed, making them highly versatile. Perfect for cutting wood, plastic, and metal, these saws are suitable for both small tasks and larger model components.
Thanks to the ability to change blades, these saws offer long-term usability and versatility, making them an essential tool for every modeler. Their thin blades minimize material loss during cutting, which is crucial when working on delicate models.
Materials That Can Be Cut with Model Saws
The model saws available in our selection are designed to handle a wide variety of materials commonly used in model making. With their precise construction, these tools enable accurate cutting, which is key to achieving professional results.
Plastics – Lexan, ABS, PS
Models made from plastics like Lexan, ABS, or PS are widely used in automotive, aviation, and figure modeling. Photo-etched saws, such as the Tamiya 74105, are perfect for cutting these materials. Their thin blades allow for smooth cuts without the risk of damaging fragile components. These saws are known for their exceptional precision, which is especially important for marking cutting lines and fitting model parts together.
Wood
Wood is a material frequently used in model making, especially for ship, airplane, or diorama models. Model saws with replaceable blades, such as the Tamiya 74024, are the ideal choice for cutting wood. Their sharp blades allow for precise cutting of small details, such as hull parts, sails, or wings.
Metal
Working with soft metals like copper or aluminum requires specialized tools that can handle tougher materials. Photo-etched model saws made from acid-resistant stainless steel, such as the Tamiya 74097, are perfect for cutting soft metals. Thanks to their sharpness and durability, precise and clean cuts are possible, which is crucial when creating small metal components for models.
