Drilling and milling
Tools for precise drilling and model part preparation
Hand drills and drill bits are useful for creating precise holes in plastic, resin and other modelling parts. They are ideal for preparing holes for pins, magnets, gun barrels and other conversions or modifications.
Hand drilling gives you good control over both pressure and drill direction, which is especially important when working with small and highly detailed components.
A hand drill is useful for preparing precise holes for small magnets, for example when creating interchangeable weapons, equipment or other model parts.
Drilling allows you to create holes for metal pins, which can help when joining and accurately positioning modelling parts.
It is also useful for drilling out gun barrels, preparing openings and making other precise modifications when building or converting miniatures.
When working with small modelling parts, precision is more important than speed. Mark the drilling point, start with light pressure and allow the drill bit to gradually create the hole. Too much force can cause the bit to slip or damage a delicate part.
