Here is a look at a few of my favorite tools I’ve found over the past couple of years. They are great for mini making as well as other crafts.
Typically used for milling, these 123 Blocks are awesome for setting on pieces when you need weight while the glue is drying.
They are also helpful for keeping pieces upright and straight when gluing two or more pieces together!
If you work with clay, this is an amazing Rolling Pin with Baking Mat tool for rolling out the clay and keeping it at the same overall thickness.
In the photos, you can see how the discs on the end of the pin can be removed and used to get the thickness you need for your project.
The silicone mat is easy to clean with a lot of measurements on it.
A set of Flush Cutters are almost a must-have tool for mini making. They can cut just about anything, get into small areas, and you get two cutters in a pack!
I have used these little Finger Sanders constantly since I bought them.
You can purchase these in several configurations, depending on what sandpaper grit you use often. Refill sandpaper strips are also available. The strips attach to the sander with velcro
As always, watch for more tool talk in the future as well as some video reviews. Please feel free to leave a comment below sharing your favorite tools!
Happy mini making,
