Mission Models Micro Chisel

Afraid i can't help you, but i have been trying to get hold of it and the etch mate for months. My usually source for most things, Hannants, hasn't had any in for ages.

I recommend The Small Shop.

As far as those small chisels, look to a store that carries wood carving chisels. Bird carvers use the same fine chisels we modelers use. You'll have a good selection to better find one that fits comfortably in your hand. Like shoes, if it doesn't fit you can't expect good performance out of them.

thanks gerald.  i'll give the small shop a try.

Hi fellas,

I am from the UK and have just joined this site.I noticed this thread and have also ordered one of these micro chisels myself from Mission Models and have been waiting for it to arrive for about two months now.When I asked for a delivery date I was told that the chisel would be shipped soon but no date given,this was about three weeks ago.

Reading these comments I'm inclined to cancel my order now as there is obviously a major stock problem.

Thanks for the info

Murray

i just ordered one from  http://www.houseofhobbies.com/mimomichto.html ...good prices...

i got the chisel,1mm replacement set and the scribing set...all below what mission models charges..

they had some supply issues over at mission models and they were out for quite a while...everybody was...but they are back up and running now...grab them while you can...

i also got one of those flexi file doo-dads...i made one before out of a coat hanger but never got the tension right...that should help out sanding a fuselage seam...i hope....

awesome!  thanks Dave.  just ordered up.

cheers

andy

glad to have helped...

Oddly enough, I finally found an Etch Mate else where for a better price because Mission Models never fulfilled my order.  They also have NEVER refunded my money after I had to cancel either, even after several phone calls and emails to try to get my money back.  Great product but, lousy customer service and service in general.  Find their products any place other than directly from them or run the risk of them keeping your money and never sending you your order.
