So my plastic cutters seem to have grown legs and run off, cant find them any where. I want to go out and buy a new pair but i know if i do ill find the old ones as soon as i get home.

Any of you have stuff like this happen?

Having a second pair is always handy in case you lose one. Or your old one is all notched up like mine because you also used it to clip pewter when you first started out in the hobby.

With bitz and models.
I buy new ones, Five days later, we find it.

All the freaking time, with everything, dating back to when I was a small child playing with lego...

Yeah this sort of thing seems to happen a lot with stuff like that. Tools and pens are big offenders, they seem to run away frequently. At least you can still use a hobby knife while you decide to buy a replacement. However, the absolute most common, and anyone who plays a guitar will likely agree with this, is guitar picks. I will buy a bag of 12 of those little buggers and lose at least half of them in a week. No clue how.
