Mirage Hobby Flat Tip Precision Tweezer are precision modeling tweezers with flat tips, 12.5 cm long. The flat tips hold photo-etched parts and decals over their whole area, so they neither deform nor pierce them.
Responsibility details are not available.
Mirage Hobby Flat Tip Precision Tweezer are precision modeling tweezers from the precision tweezer range of the Polish manufacturer Mirage Hobby. The length is 12.5 cm and the tips are flat, and that is exactly the point of the tool. The tweezers of this range are stainless steel, so they resist corrosion and are easy to clean.
Pointed tweezers touch the material at practically a single point. That is good for pulling a microscopic part out of a sprue, but bad for anything thin and flat: a photo-etched part bends under point pressure or takes a dent, and a wet decal tears. Flat tips, by contrast, spread the pressure over the whole contact area. The part is held firmly and yet whole, so it can be turned, carried and set precisely in place without creasing. Flat tips also slide better under the edge of a part lying on a board.
For modelers who work with photo-etch and decals, that is builders of aircraft, military vehicles, ships and figures. They will be appreciated by a beginner whose decals have been tearing and by an advanced modeler who keeps several types of tweezers in the case and reaches for the flat ones where pointed tips would damage the material.
Keep the tips clean and do not use the tweezers as a lever, as precisely meeting tips are what makes tweezers tweezers, and bending them costs the tool its precision. The model, photo-etch and decals are not included in the package.
