Miracle Work Pad Keeps Dropped Parts from Disappearing

Ingenious, flexible, semi-soft silicone pad provides both impact-deadening and roll-resistance, keeping mini hardware pieces, model parts and other tiny components from bouncing into the black hole of oblivion while handling. Typically used for jewelry-making, watch assembly/repair and electronic work, this unique pad is extremely useful when repairing model trains, handling model ship parts and working with plastic kit pieces as well. And because the pad is naturally resistant to paint and glue, it's a great surface for scale model assembly and detailing. High-visibility green pad measures 13-1/2" x 9-1/4" x 3/32" thick.

Good quality foam clay

Unlike any air dry clay I've used .
Very easy to manipulate , doesn't stick to your fingers .
Can be made into paper thin sheets that hold their shape .

Thick sections will take well over 24 hours to dry out ; high water weight when fresh .
Evaporation slows down considerably once the outer " crust " dries on thick pieces .

After 24 hours @ 78 degrees and about 60% humidity , the 3.1 gram sample I experimented with weighs 1.2 grams .
.. and after 48 hrs weighs just 1/2 gram ,, and I don't think it's fully dry yet .

Definitely worth the price .
Very versatile .

My only complaint is the bag it comes in .
It is a zipper lock bag but you need to remove a fair amount of the product before you'll be able to engage the zipper .
It's stuffed full when new .
I fit the bag into a plastic container ( Folgers coffee 43.5oz can ) with an inch of water at the bottom to ensure it doesn't dry out until I use enough to be able to close the bag .
Most likely keep it in that can regardless , just to be safe .

Quality miniature model paint

This stuff is comparable to Vallejo paints which everyone in the hobby already knows are tried and true. I honestly would not be able to tell the difference between the 2 brands looking at a finished model or trying to paint with it. The price is about the same but this includes slightly bigger bottles with a better design on the lid and seem to come with a plastic mixer ball already inside but its hard to tell for sure. This paint set also includes a paint thinner and cleaner for airbrushing. Its really hard to beat the price and value of this paint set for anyone wanting to have a quality paint job on something. I would say its near impossible.

A reasonably competent tool!

Works reasonably well for the low cost. I found it boggs down with very little pressure in hardwood, so a light touch is required for small carvings. The diamond point does do a nice job etching on steel, however. I found I had good control of the etching process using it on steel tools.

I bought an accessory pack of two additional bits with the tool.
