Photoetch Bending Tool

[Mence]

Hi all

My trusty, crude and rather awful PE bending tool has finally opted for the quiet life so i need to replace it

I know there must be a few different ones out there now so I am really after suggestions and / or advice.

I don't use the tool much so I really don't want to spend a big slug of cash on one so let me know your guys experiences and we'll go from there.

Alternatively, if any of you guys have a usable spare you want to offload, let me know, happy to pay but best confined to the UK guys as postage costs would be fairly high...

Thanking you in advance...

Hi mate, I have an Etchmate 3C and I can tell you NOT to buy it. The bending aids are of a kind of plastic and it's breaks really fast.

I heard good things about the bending tools of The Small Shop: they come in different sizes and I think the smallest one comes around 30€.

Cheers

Cheers Wouts.

Just located a U.K. seller for the Hold and Fold range, they look very good indeed!

Mence,

I have two of the Small Shop Holds and Folds and both are great tools well worth the money spent.

Cheers,
Thom

Well if it's good enough for you two masters of modelling then it will easily be enough for an old gimmer like me! Thanks chaps.
