Piano hinge scribing template?

Recommended Posts

Guys,

 

does anyone have recommendations for etched scribing templates for piano hinges in 1:48? So far, I've only found a Dream Model tool: https://www.hannants.co.uk/product/DMTOOL02 but it's a bit pricey and it's hard to guess whether the size of the teeth are appropriate for 1:48...

Any other ideas?

Alternatively, I'll have to cut the teeth into brass one by one, but that wouldn't be as accurate as an etched product.

 

Cheers

Jeffrey

That looks like the one I bought from evilbay a couple of months ago:

Took about a month to arrive but I wasn't in a hurry and it was the best price scribing template I could find.

Cheers, let's see. I've ordered the one from Italy and the Dream Model set from China, who get's there first?

Still puzzled about the Hannants thing - perhaps someone viewing this thread got an idea and ordered the one in stock? Or just exceptional coincidence...

Thanks everyone and Happy New Year!
