Cutting Tools for RC Planes

Tettra Japanese Hand Saw

This incredible little tool is so sharp and precise in its cut, it handles more like an X-acto knife than a regular hand saw. The comfortable handle gives precision control, and the thin, fine-tooth blade leaves a very small slit in the work.  Don't let the price fool you, this is a quality tool, perfectly suited to building and modifying pattern rc aircraft.

Overall Length: 10"

Fine-tooth Blade: 5 1/2"                   


TETTRA Micro Hand Saw #TET6253   $9.95
 
 

"Slot Machine" Hinge Slot Cutter

With the Slot machine, kit building's biggest chore takes nearly no time at all!

Slot Machine Motorized Hinge Slotting Tool photo

A single airplane kit may have as many as 30-40 hinge slots. Cutting each hinge slot using a manual tool (such as a hobby knife) often takes 2-3 minutes each. Do the math — you can spend hours just cutting slots!

No wonder so many modelers loathe the job. But now there's a better way: With Great Planes' patented electric-powered Slot Machine, you can cut ALL of your kit's hinge slots in about 30 minutes!
