Visit your Podiatrist to open Revell VIIc limber holes.

I read a lot of comments in this forum and sorted thru my Dremel and dental bits, but wasn't happy with any of the results on scrap plastic. What to do? I suppose I should have posted this in the "Tool" forum, but I know a lot of modelers who read the "Ship" forum are working on the Revell VIIc 1/72-scale U-Boat.

While at my friendly podiatrist (foot doctor) I noticed the flexible shaft device he used to trim and smooth toenails. He gave me a spare bit when I told him about the task I had in mind (opening the limber holes on the VIIc).

This is a bit that easily fits Dremel tools. It's made of steel, has a roughly conical shape, and helical design. It only cuts away a very little bit at a time and removes plastic more finely than most other cutters or grinders I've tried.

I have no idea where these can be purchased (other than thru some kind of medical supply), but if you're interested...just visit your friendly local podiatrist or chiropodist.

By the way--the flex shaft tool had foot speed-control and an attached vacuum. It would have made a great hobby tool!
