So we need to familiarize ourselves with the makeup of a cutter, and know the different components and their uses. We must also learn the techniques required to use the cutter safely.<\/p>\n<h5>1. The blade of a cutter is scored with slanted lines.<\/h5>\n<p>When the blade becomes blunt, you can snap off its blunt\u00a0section\u00a0along the scoreline to reveal a new blade.\u00a0It is very convenient when it comes to replacing the blunt part of the cutter.<\/p>\n<h5>2. A commercially available small cutter has blades that come in a 30\u00b0 and 60\u00b0 (58\u00b0) angle.<\/h5>\n<p>When making an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rjmodels.com.hk\/ko\/\">architectural model<\/a>, many details require precise handling. And a 30\u00b0 angle blade is most suited for such precision cutting.<\/p>\n<p>We highly recommend that you purchase one.<\/p>\n<div class=\"text-center\">\n<div class=\"imgWithCaption\">\n<div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-6674\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rjmodels.com.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Tools-for-Architectural-Model-Making-3.jpg\" alt=\"Tools for Architectural Model Making\" width=\"696\" height=\"354\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rjmodels.com.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Tools-for-Architectural-Model-Making-3.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.rjmodels.com.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Tools-for-Architectural-Model-Making-3-300x153.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.rjmodels.com.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Tools-for-Architectural-Model-Making-3-768x391.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 696px) 100vw, 696px\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"imgCaption\">A Cutter comes in 30\u00b0 angle<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h5>3. The trick to cutting board of material with a cutter is to avoid trying to cut it in one motion.<\/h5>\n<p>That\u2019s because\u00a0this will use too much force, resulting in an uneven cut.<\/p>\n<p>To ensure a high-quality cut, use between 30%-40% of strength and repeat the cutting motion on the same line 3 to 4 times to cut through the board of material.<\/p>\n<h5>4. The cutting motion must be quick and without hesitation.<\/h5>\n<p>Do not go too slow as this will result in an uneven edge.<\/p>\n<h5>5. The blade of the cutter must not stretch too far out of its casing. It is sufficient to extend the knife blade by 1 or 2 snap-off sections.<\/h5>\n<p>When the\u00a0blade\u00a0extends too far out, it becomes unsafe as the blade can bend and potentially break under pressure.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, the cutting motion with a blade that extends too far out will be less steady.<\/p>\n<p>Thus, it\u00a0impossible to produce a neat and smooth line.<\/p>\n<h5>6. Using a cutter with a very blunt edge can cause one of the most common injuries during the model making.<\/h5>\n<p>As the knife edge is not sharp, we naturally use more force. And this force increases the risk of the knife slipping and cutting your fingers.<\/p>\n<p>Hence, always replace the knife blade once it is blunt.<\/p>\n<h5>7. For safety reason, always snap-off the blunt section of a blade with pliers or similar tool.<\/h5>\n<p>The purpose is to prevent the snap-off segment from scattering off, resulting in injuries.<\/p>\n<h5>8. For convenience, store all the blunt knife sections in a temporary container and dispose of this correctly afterward. An old tin can will suffice.<\/h5>\n<p>Although the blade snapper is designed to break off the blunt section, the broken-off piece can still bounce off easily.<\/p>\n<p>The blade holder of this tool can also deform as a result of frequent use. So it is best to avoid using the built-in blade snapper.<\/p>\n<h5>9. Some cutters come with a built-in blade snapper generally at the top.<\/h5>\n<p>The blade snapper has a slot to hold the knife blade in place.<\/p>\n<h5>10. Lastly, always store the cutter in a dark and dry place to prevent rusting.<\/h5>\n<h3><strong>C3.1.2 Acrylic Cutting Tool<\/strong><\/h3>\n<div class=\"text-center\">\n<div class=\"imgWithCaption\">\n<div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-6675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rjmodels.com.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Tools-for-Architectural-Model-Making-4.jpg\" alt=\"Acrylic Cutting Tool\" width=\"776\" height=\"223\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rjmodels.com.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Tools-for-Architectural-Model-Making-4.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.rjmodels.com.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Tools-for-Architectural-Model-Making-4-300x86.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.rjmodels.com.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Tools-for-Architectural-Model-Making-4-768x221.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 776px) 100vw, 776px\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"imgCaption\">Acrylic Cutting Tool<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Cutting a plastic board is less complicated.<\/p>\n<p>During cutting acrylic board, please cut with a firm downward motion.<\/p>\n<p>Repeat this action a few times before breaking off the sections of the board.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>C3.1.3 Model Making Scissors<\/strong><\/h3>\n<div class=\"text-center\">\n<div class=\"imgWithCaption\">\n<div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-6676\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rjmodels.com.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Tools-for-Architectural-Model-Making-5.jpeg\" alt=\"Tools for Architectural Model Making\" width=\"533\" height=\"526\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rjmodels.com.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Tools-for-Architectural-Model-Making-5.jpeg 800w, https:\/\/www.rjmodels.com.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Tools-for-Architectural-Model-Making-5-300x296.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.rjmodels.com.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Tools-for-Architectural-Model-Making-5-768x757.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.rjmodels.com.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Tools-for-Architectural-Model-Making-5-45x45.jpeg 45w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 533px) 100vw, 533px\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"imgCaption\">Model Making Scissors<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>People often use scissors for paper and general cutting.<\/p>\n<p>There are also metal multifunctional scissors for cutting metal sheets.<\/p>\n<p>1.

It is especially true for a stainless steel ruler, which is slightly weighted.<\/p>\n<p>When held down firmly with your fingers while cutting, the ruler will not move, making it a steadier cutting guide tool.<\/p>\n<p>3. Another feature of a stainless steel ruler is the measurement markings start from the end of the ruler.<\/p>\n<p>It isn\u2019t\u00a0start\u00a0slightly in from the edge, leaving a small unmarked section.<\/p>\n<p>4. Therefore, it is possible during a measurement to align the ruler with the starting point of the \u00a0measured\u00a0object.<\/p>\n<p>Some rulers have no blanks at either end.<\/p>\n<p>5. Whether you use a 6-inch, 12-inch or 18-inch ruler largely depends on the size of the model you are working on.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>C3.2.2: Stainless steel triangle ruler, also known as a set square<\/strong><\/h3>\n<div class=\"text-center\">\n<div class=\"imgWithCaption\">\n<div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-6679\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rjmodels.com.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Tools-for-Architectural-Model-Making-8.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"663\" height=\"373\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rjmodels.com.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Tools-for-Architectural-Model-Making-8.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.rjmodels.com.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Tools-for-Architectural-Model-Making-8-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.rjmodels.com.hk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Tools-for-Architectural-Model-Making-8-768x432.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 663px) 100vw, 663px\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"imgCaption\">Stainless steel triangle ruler<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>1.
