Holders and Clamps

Holders and Clamps – Precision and Comfort in Scale Modeling

Working on a model requires great precision and often, both hands free. Modeling holders and clamps are a category of tools designed to immobilize parts during gluing, painting, sanding, or soldering. They make the work significantly easier and more comfortable, minimizing the risk of errors, such as accidentally moving glued parts. This is essential workshop equipment that both beginners and experienced modelers will appreciate, ensuring stability and consistency in their work.

Types of Holders and Their Applications

Our offer includes various types of holding tools. A popular solution is the "helping hands" tool, equipped with adjustable arms ending in alligator clips and often a magnifying glass, ideal for precise work with small details or electronics. For gluing larger components, like fuselage halves or wings, spring clamps and other clamps are indispensable. Available in various sizes, they allow for even pressure on the surfaces being glued. Small modeling vises are an excellent choice for securing parts during mechanical processing, such as drilling or sawing. For painting details, we recommend special holders with clips that allow you to conveniently paint the entire surface without touching it.

Choosing the right tool depends on the type of work and the scale of the model. It's a good idea to equip your workshop with several different types of clamps and holders to be prepared for any challenge. Well-chosen tools are an investment that significantly enhances the quality and enjoyment of the modeling hobby.
