A good selection of files is an essential part of

any modellers kit. My pick of the bunch from

these here are the diamond files. I am currently

working on a mixed media, metal, wood and

photo-etched kit, where the large and fine

diamond files have been essential in cleaning

up the parts. My 14-year-old son, who has just

started modelling Games Workshop figures,

has found the small diamond file set excellent

for cleaning up the plastic and metal parts.

The needle and riffler files are also

excellent for cleaning up parts, the riffler

files are especially good for hard to get to

areas. If you want a bit more comfort whilst

using your files the wooden handle, would

be a worthwhile investment too.
