A modeller's tools are the difference between a frustrating build and an enjoyable one. Our Hobby Tools collection is built around Xuron, the US-based precision tool company whose flush cutters, photo-etch scissors and railroad tool kits are the go-to for serious hobbyists. If a working modeller in North America owns one set of flush cutters, odds are heavy they're Xuron.
We stock the full Xuron range: 9180 and 9180ET professional photo-etch scissors, 9200 tapered-head micro-shear flush cutters (14 AWG), 485FN flat-nose pliers with wide jaws for wire forming, 501 adjustable wire stripper / cutter (10-30 AWG), plus the TK2100 Modeler's Tool Kit and TK2200 Railroader's Tool Kit (3-piece sets with pouch). The TK3000 empty canvas tool pouch holds three tools and is the easiest way to organise the bench. The Xuron 2175 Track Cutter is the iconic rail nipper for cutting code 70-100 track flush against ties.
Pair tools with Adhesives for the bonding side of the bench, and Paint for the finishing side. Building track? Pair with Tracksetta templates. Ships from Oakville, Ontario. Free shipping on orders over $250. Contact us for special orders.
