... but how can they sell all this for less that $20USD shipped? I was sold!
Photo-etched steel stencil with scale rules one each side but, for me, cutting guides for masking tape:

It is etched on both sides.

A chrome marker from Demei to compare to the Molotow I own and also a no brand well made metal square...

The same no brand metal square with DSPIAE 0.5mm brass rods and some no brand high temnperature tape for holding parts while soldering.

DSPIAE 0.5mm brass rods, in package, with a nicely done heavy gage photo-etched steel saw set with a well done handle and two (cheap) #11 blades... The saw blades are half etched on each side to create a tiny offset kerf which does improve cutting.

Now Amazon's Prime truck delivered some 1/2 inch OD copper tubes (Cobra 32nd scale exhaust extension inwards) and 1.3mm brass tubes for 72nd scale Cobra 7 shot rocket pods.

Seeing @JSteinman's work, I decided to follow John's example and ordered myself some UV clear resin, with a lamp, only because it was on sale. I do plan to get a better lamp in the future.

I have just been using it as a filler, i had a gap on the DH9 fuselage, just filled it with uv glue and cured it. Advantage seems to be it doesnt contract
