I agree with you 100%. I save tools all the time. I did eventually unload a few small screwdrivers. I am in love with your tiny shopping cart. Where did that come from?

Nice , thanks so much for sharing.

It is always inspiring what other people use and work on their miniatures.

I keep the box. I actually keep everything inside the box. I mean, the parts where I can get those parts for building it, I still have those. I don’t know. I just wanted them inside. Hahaha

I’ve become a tweezer snob. Since I started using the really nice needle tipped ones I can’t go back to the cheap ones. And they are really inexpensive. It’s not like buying expensive scissors. A nice pair of tweezers is like 3$.

I throw the small boxes away. I kept box that is enough for most spare parts, 1 box for the instruction booklets. The rest I throw them out. Their boxes are really nice but got no room for it.

Yeah me too. I just don’t have room for the boxes even though they are so beautiful.

That’s understandable for small spaces. I think I just have a seperation anxiety. Lol

What a great collection you have!

I may be… Crazy? A lot of people tells me this. But I don’t actually use any tools :rofl: as far as tools go, my kit building usually comes with:

  • My own fingers
  • Sanding bar or paper if provided
  • Waxing bar if provided/needed
  • That kind of liquid glue that comes with a small brush to apply it (the only kind of glue I actually don’t dislike lol)
