Model Forum / General / Models / January 2006electric toothbrush as a sanding tool
Hi, A few weeks ago I read an article on the net describing how to convert an electric toothbrush into a "power sanding tool" for plastic modelling. Try as I might, I can't find it anymore. I don't even remember if it was an one of the plastic modelling newsgroups or on a particular plastic modelling website. New years festivities might have affected my memory somewhat ;-) Anyway, Google comes up with www.finescale.com/fsm/community/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=26113 but that proves to be a dead link. If someone could point me in the right direction, that would be swell.

This is the one you possibly found, it translates in quite an amusing way - there are lots of other good tips here as well: www.modellversium.de/tipps/artikel.php?id=1 I found that a standard hole punch can be used to cut disks of double sided tape and different grades of paper - works a treat!

I am interested in converting an old electric toothbrush, but cannot follow the German(?) in the article. Many thanks in advance.

Mike > >=== > >Mike, [quoted text clipped - 14 lines] > > Mike Mike, Thanks for the tip. Just did what you recommended, and after reading the first paragraph I had to stop and catch my breath. Something about literal translations that make them that much more fun to read and try to interpret. I'll make the necessary mental adjustments and try control my bladder this second time around. Thanks again, Ray Austin, TX === |
