I don't think I've ever used it for a topo model - but then again that's the fun about making models, and that is making your own tools (or retrofitting in this case)
i'm surprised that people still make topo models this way though... i figured all the kids were using laser cutters for topo stuff these days...
ahhhh the lost are of hand made models... it always pisses me off to see a piece of chipboard with a few simple rectangles cut out of it with the unmissable burnt edges of a laser cutter... i mean, just use an xacto knife and do it in half the time...
that little spur tool for topo models...?
what is it called?? Spikey wheel that traces a dotted path along topo graphic maps for topographic models...
uhhh...tracing wheel. originally made for sewing.
jeffe, you're the answer man today!

yeah archit, i too miss it, and the blood is just added flavor to the model.
sort of funny when i see laser cut models that look like shit with bad glueing jobs/etc....
