RE: [GZG] Re: Model Planets and figs

I assumed you were talking Wonder Cutter. That's a VERY thin wire. The 
more expensive sets tend to have thicker, stronger wire.

You can do fine things with a Wonder Cutter, just have to have more 
patience than I, or you'll snap the wire, at a buck or two a crack. ;->=

On the other hand, my OOP Gobi's won't break, but if I rush 'em, they
just 
make that many more strings and build up glops of melted PS.
