                        Excel makes saws to comparable to Xacto but cheaper. It is a good investment and you can use it on many things

                        I agree with the comments above.
                        I have an X-Acto and will never regret purchasing it.Very handy tool especially with resin and for converting kits.I prefer to use a razor saw as much as possible to minimise the dust.
                        Verlinden ,as said above ,hardly ever provide instructions only ,and I have double checked my stockpile ,for multimedia kits. They are normally straight forward so they are not required.For larger kits try e-bay for a cheap motor tool(dremel etc)
                        Regards,
                        Simon.

                        Ditto on the razor saw.

                        There are very few Verlinden kits with instructions, and most of those are either superdetail kits or some of their artillery kits. And even then, the detail on the instructions is minimal.

                        Remember, if the women don't find you handsome, they should at least find you handy.

                        Like Peridexion said, a saw is the best way unless you want to use a motor tool to cut it of. Zona also makes good cheap saws.

                        A razor saw is something you will use alot once you have one.

                        X-Acto and Hobbico both come to mind, should only be about $8 or so.

                        Hate to tell you this, but you're going to have to break down and buy a razor saw. It is a very useful tool. Jeweler's saws are also very handy to have. I couldn't get by without them.

                        verlinden resin
                        Posted by Anonymous on Thursday, February 3, 2005 2:53 PM
                        i just got a verlinden resin kit -- wooden bridge section. the pieces are all connected to resin part trees and none of my knives can cut through it, and i don't own a saw to do it. i tried simply snapping the pices off, but it didn't quite work, and i don't want to try again. how should i get it off? also, no instructions came with it. i think i see how it goes together, but it would be nice to have something to prove me right. should instructions have came with it, or do i just have to figure it out. thanks!!!!!
