RB Productions Flip R-10 PE Folding Tool Ref: RB-T001
This is a bending tool for photoetched parts. It can bend any commercially available photoetched parts up to a length of 10 cm (approx 4 in). Suitable for all scales and all types of modeling. This tool works by the same principle as the hinged bending brakes that can be found in many metal workshops around the world. The photoetched parts are held in place between the base and the bending attachment, then they are bent by pivoting the hinged bending plate. The tool can also be used in the more "traditional" manner whereby a blade can be used to bend the parts. It is made from stainless steel and can be easily stored in your toolbox.

RB Productions Coarse Saw Blade Ref: RB-T014
Despite its name, this saw blade is still a relatively fine blade that is recommended for rapid rip cuts.

This blade is made from stainless steel and is quite stiff and sturdy.

It is highly recommended that this saw blade is fitted into the specially designed holder available separately below.
Price: £3.00 (Excluding VAT at 17.5%)

This saw blade must fitted into the specially designed holder available separately below. This holder will give the blade the necessary rigidity to make the best cuts.

RB Productions Ultra-Fine Saw Blade Ref: RB-T017
This is a very fine saw blade and is recommended especially for the finest model-related cuts. This blade can be used to cut plastic, wood and resin.

This saw was also successfully tested on soft sheet metal such as brass, copper and aluminium. The blade is made from stainless steel.

This saw blade must fitted into the specially designed holder available separately below. This holder will give the blade the necessary rigidity to make the best cuts. Using this tool without the holder may lead to damage to the blade.

RB Productions Saw Blade Holder Ref: RB-SAW
This holder is essential as it holds the blades straight and stiffens them. This improves the cutting, it prolongs the life of the blade and prevents any possible injury by keeping fingers away from the sharp edges of the blade.

The set contains one holder and two screws+nuts, which are all made entirely from stainless steel. It is designed to be used with any proprietary knife handle, such as Xacto.
Price: £6.09 (Excluding VAT at 17.5%)

RB Productions Contour Saw Set Ref: RB-T018
The set includes 5 saw blades:

2 Curved saws - these can be run along a ruler as pictured below. Two sizes are included - the narrower blade can be used to follow curved edges. These saws can also get into very tight and awkward spaces.

2 Tapered saws - these can follow curved lines and contours. The narrower blade can follow tighter curves.

1 Two-sided saw. The teeth of this saw point in different directions to suit a variety of different uses. This saw is excellent for separating resin blocks.

These blades are made from stainless steel, are very rigid and sturdy and were thoroughy tested for efficiency - they will not buckle easily during use. They are designed for use with a standard hobby knife handle.
Price: £6.96 (Excluding VAT at 17.5%)

RB Productions Scriber Ref: RB-T019
This is a scriber for plastic and resin. This scriber can be used in two ways: the sharp "blade" end can be used in a manner similar to other scribers, either free-hand or running along a hard edge, such as a ruler. This removes a fine burr of material leaving a clean groove behind. The set includes three blades to replace worn or damaged blades. Alternatively the back (curved) edge of the holder has extremely fine teeth that act like a file and leave a very fine groove behind. This is ideal for scribing edge panel lines such as wing edges, fuselage spines etc but it can also be used by running it along a hard edge such as a ruler. The tool is made entirely of stainless steel. It is designed to be used with a standard hobby knife handle.
Price: £5.57 (Excluding VAT at 17.5%)
