The Army Painter Miniature and Model Drill, Pin Vise Mini Drill Set with 3 Small Drill Bits for Plastic, Resin and Metal Miniatures, Fantasy Tabletop Wargaming and Roleplaying

Product Information

It can drill holes in metal, resin and plastic miniatures with the drill bits provided in the handle case and can fit up to a 3mm drill bit size. Before I get into too much detail about this drill I would like to point out a small but very important fact. The Pin Vise is constructed with lightweight and durable aluminum, making it easy to handle and resistant to wear and tear. They are usually made of zinc or lead alloy and come fully formed in a single piece which portrays the vehicle in a smaller scale. I do a lot of my layout work in the garage or the garden (they are the only places where I have enough space to set up the layout without interfering with my wife’s music lessons!

It would be nice to see a comparison between those and perhaps some name-brand models that work the same way.The strangest thing is that this comes with only one two-sided collet, even though the handle unscrews from the body to house a second. The rotating and tilting head allows you to maneuver your work piece to the most accessible angle and then locked into position by a single . It does use collets however these are only 1 sided and there’s one for each of the different sized drill bits you get with it. The Army Painter’s Hobby Drill is a well-known, versatile, and essential tool for customising miniature figures and models. The versatile and compact Hobby Hand Drill is a precision tool designed for drilling and tapping in tight and confined spaces.

It would have been an excellent selling point and opened up another market for what is an excellent tool. The most common thing we all drill (Space Marine Gun Barrels) it makes sense to drill the side holes with one diameter drill bit and the front of the barrels with a slightly larger drill bit. These paints provide perfect results for any modelling subject, whether aircraft, military or civilian vehicles, figures, science-fiction and fantasy, or dioramas, providing a highly durable finish when dry. The other annoyance (and it is just an annoyance) is that the handle wobbles a bit squeaks like hell.Well, they are made by the same company and I suspect its made in exactly the same factory by exactly the same people. shank just makes things so convenient by not having to keep changing collets to swap drill bit sizes. The casing feels tough enough (typical Bosch) but its the slight increase in size rather than any weight consideration that causes me to think about how I tackle a task. I was one of the lucky few that purchased a Dremel Stylus which was sooooo close to being an extremely good bench top mini drill.
