Excellent video Aaron! A follow-up on painting these parts would also be useful. I'm concerned about using brushes without bending the part. Ship rails for example. Thanks!

By far the best instructional video on how to bend all types/shapes of PE parts

That plastic bag/sticky note trick is top notch tip! Will make it even better when I place it on a ceramic tile (or glass) to get that one piece cut that usually feeds the carpet monster. Will definitely make ship rails a lot easier 👍

Very impressed with your skills, could you say the make of your tweezers and what you use for applying CA glue, just seen and subscribed, been a long time absent from model making these videos are priceless for me, keep them coming please, my hands are old and stiff so these videos help thanks.

Tamiya offers a nice PE-scissor... I use it a lot.

I've been using CA-cement for many years but I got to know Ammo of Mig's Ultraglue about a year ago and I don't use CA-glue any more... you have much more time to place the parts and one bottle lasts for ever.

We haven't used Ultraglue yet, but we'll take a look. Thanks for the tip.

A material I absolutely despise. I have never had any luck with etch parts. Will give it another try, but I won't get my hopes up.

PE is definitely not for everyone, and it can take some time to get a feel for working with it. Some modelers avoid it entirely, and that's totally OK. Do what works for you and your hobby!

@@FineScaleModelermagazine Thanks, only just catching up with the comments. My original comment may have come across as a little negative. I can just about handle a 90 degree, but anything else just ends in disaster. Especially curves, which usually end as misshapen hexagons!

I started building Tamiya scale modes after taking a 40 year hiatus. There were no PE parts back in the old days. When I saw the PE parts in a new kit I was and still am completely baffled.

You neglected to mention to cut PE on a hard surface, not a cutting mat. Excellent video though!

Is there any difference between photo etched parts and metal earth models?
@FineScaleModelermagazine

Metal Earth 3D model kits are full kits made from photo-etched metal parts. They're designed to fit together without glue or solder, and we've had fun building them.

Why do they include metal parts in a plastic model kit? What’s the point?
@FineScaleModelermagazine

Photo-etched metal parts can provide better or more accurate detail than what may have otherwise been achieved with the plastic.

What type of glue applicator are you using in the exacto knife body?
