Eyelet making tool

A brilliant idea by Scott Nicolich

As you can see by the photos, simplicity is the name of the game. A piece of dowel cut to length, a small hole drilled in one end and a wire hook glued into the hole, that’s it. The sample sent to me by Scott had a hook made from 0.4mm wire, I like my eyelets to have a 0.3mm eye so I changed the wire.

By following the instructions on each photo you will see how easy it is to make dozens of eyelets in a very short time and every eyelet will be exactly the same.

 

My thanks to Scott for sharing this idea with the rest of the modeling community and for sending me a sample to review, it is very much appreciated.
