Model parts launched from tweezers actually travel to another dimension.

Wire trimmings launched from my 40 year old wire cutter pliers shoot across my shop at the speed of light and like your model parts, disappear forever...somewhere.

I am fortunate enough to have a wife that loves the challenge of finding my tweezer pings. All I have to do is say "Honey I need your help" and she is there with Waldo in her eyes, she rarely fails in finding Waldo. She once found a part 3 weeks later but by then I didn't even need it anymore.

Every week I have to make miniature working steel rivets that not only have to be peened over, but they have to be set with enough precision to allow perfect orbit articulation. A nightmare... Which has sadly... Cost me... One marriage, dozens of girlfriend's and nearly all my hair! 🙈😂😅😂 Best wishes from a British maker of miniature armour in a French forest. Bravo mate. 🏆⚒️🇬🇧

Sharpen your tweezers by running them flat along the tapered outside edge against a piece of sandpaper like 800-1,000 grit. This will allow you to hold very small round parts. This is an old watch makers trick for holding onto very small screws & small rod's without them flying away on you.
@johnhughes2653 Жыл бұрын
To find small parts, get one of those bug catching vaccuums and fix a piece of loose-weave material across the end of the tube. Small parts will be sucked up on the the material quite easily. Also beats crawling under the bench!

James, the brass rods don't deform. They keep their shape and diameter. The piece with the hole is only to push the rods into the workpiece leaving the rods at a uniform height above the flat surface.
