TAMIYA Diamond File Photo Etched Parts TAM74066 Misc. Tool/Construction Accys

it works great on photo etch

This file costs as much as a full set of tiny hobby files, but it does something that thos files don't: it can quickly and precisely remove metal nubs. That means better fitting seams in Metal Earth models. It also means that you won't demolish that $30 set of seat belts that came with your Revell BF-109 photoetch set. This file has enough flat, curved and thin spots that you can reach practically anything and it seems to work well on all sorts of material: wood, metal and plastic. For photoetch models and model parts there is a pretty high cost factor, both with material and tools (if you are going to do it right). A photoetch folder has proved necessary, as have the Xuron pliers and cutters. This file works perfectly as part of that team.

I have used some real rubbish files and some real excellent files. I say that this is a great file. It is coarse enough (relatively speaking) to get the job done, yet fine enough to look as if you weren't there. Know what I mean? For photoetch super delicate stuff this is a very useful too. It also has a long rubber section on the handle for comfort. Easy to use. Works a treat. Quality stuff.

Once again Tamiya has a decent offering for a hard to find tool. It'a a little pricey, but it works well on photo etched parts when you need to take a little off.

This file is great for those hard to reach areas, the handle fits well in hand and the material is good quality.Tamiya files are among the best for modelers and hobbyist...Highly recommend

File is perfect for taking the excess off the PE pieces cut from a fret. Sometimes I leave too much of material when I cut the piece and this file is really good for its removal. I bought it after it was recommended on a youtube video and I am glad that I did.

Nice file for 3d metal puzzles. No complaints.

Makes quick work of cleaning up PE parts. It has a fine grit unlike other files. Lasts a very long time.
