I would like to take this time to remind the experienced and the inexperienced modelers, SAFETY FIRST!
We use small tool's for cutting, trimming, bending, drilling, etc., to create most of our models which requires the use of small sharp tools. These are dangerous at all time's even when used properly. I sliced my thumb open all the way to the bone and threw the finger nail cutting some plastic from a McKean center beam flat car with a #11 Xacto knife. The good news is that this hasn't been the first time. For my past knowledge of homemade stitches, that saved me the 10 hour wait at the hospital. Therefore I won't be building/working on anything for the next couple weeks. Watch those tiny drill bits. They can stick you in the hand before you even know it. Just because the trains are smaller and you think their safe. Think again. SAFETY FIRST!
