|  Got new Body needing help
Got a New Descender Body for my Mini Crawler pro. I'm going With a Scale look on it and Painting it Blue with Fusion Krylon Paint for plastic, I've used the silver and it works flawlessly. Anyhow my question is It not been Cut yet, If dont use a Dremmel then what can I use to cut the body? Sizzors? Shears? Also If I wanted to do a 2 tone paint job with blue below the window line and silver everything above do i just mask it on isnide where i want the lines? |

Here is what I always use. There is the straight one for obviously straight cuts and then the curved ones for cutting the curves and corners. Dynamite Lexan Scissors. |

Try scoring the body with your exacto and then come back and "tear" the scores. Makes a flawless separation...works for me at least.

Make the first cut very light (press softly) to get right on the line you want. Then make a few more passes pushing harder. This should keep you from getting off line w/ the cuts. Good luck

As far as scissors, I picked up a cheap kit at my LHS for about 12 bucks . It has the straight ,and curved scissors , and a body reamer. I think they were dubro brand. Been working great for me..........

Just like to start off by saying that I knew NOTHING about the guy ripping off anybody ! All I was doing was trying to help a guy out. Nothing else had been posted so I figured , what the hell , I'll try to help. Imagine my surprise when I look back a few months later and all I got was crap for trying to help out another RC enthusiast. WTF?? I joined this forum because I know there's times when I may need help, and maybe I might be able to help others on occasion. That IS what it's for right? I think some others need to remember that before they start giving people crap.......
