Description

Model making machine designed to work with photo-etched and aluminum elements. The total length of the tool is 130 mm, with its own weight of 275 g. Galvanized steel with high mechanical strength was used for its production. The lower part of the tool, i.e. its working area, was solidly made, and on the bottom it also received a special non-slip pad on its entire surface, additionally stabilizing the folding machine on the worktop. On the other hand, the upper part, intended for pressing the photo-etched elements against the working field, has been colored black and has a total of 8 protrusions (“teeth”) of various widths. It is worth adding that their length (depth) compared to the products 135 mm long PIRANHA PE Tool or195 mm long PIRANHA PE Tool is smaller. Both parts of the bending machine are connected with each other with 2 bolts (bolts) and 2 screws with plastic caps, but equipped with springs. The latter solution significantly facilitates precise adjustment of the height of lifting the upper part of the tool and adjusting it to the formed element. It is worth adding that the part with protrusions (“teeth”) can be removed from the tool and put on the working field with its other side. In this way, you can easily create a uniform, straight edge that makes it much easier to work with longer photo-etched parts. Of course, the presented tool allows for both single and multi-stage bending of such elements. Undoubtedly, it will significantly speed up and facilitate work with them. It should be added that together with the folding machine there is a special blade in the package, resembling a razor blade, which is used to bend elements. A model knife with a thin blade or precision tweezers will also work in the same role. The presented bending machine will turn out to be a very useful tool in the workshop of every modeller who enhances his miniatures with photo-etched or aluminum elements. It will prove useful especially when working with models of, for example: airplanes, combat vehicles, civilian vehicles or ships in the scale of 1: 350 and 1: 700, but also when working with figures in 1:16 and 1:35 scale. Related products are for example: which enhances its miniatures with photo-etched or aluminum elements. It will prove useful especially when working with models of, for example: airplanes, combat vehicles, civilian vehicles or ships in the scale of 1: 350 and 1: 700, but also when working with figures in 1:16 and 1:35 scale. Related products are for example: which enhances its miniatures with photo-etched or aluminum elements. It will prove useful especially when working with models of, for example: airplanes, combat vehicles, civilian vehicles or ships in the scale of 1: 350 and 1: 700, but also when working with figures in 1:16 and 1:35 scale. Related products are for example: 18cm long Photo Etch tool, 135 mm long PIRANHA PE Tool albo 195 mm long PIRANHA PE Tool.

Useful tool

Though a bit expensive, this tool does make PE bending so much easier and the angles more precise.

Sturdy bender...

Worked well for bending the photo etched parts I've come across so far. The powder coating seems really thick but still has a nice bending edge to it. Great buy for any modeler.
