I am planning on doing some heavy conversions in the near future, more than I ever have before. I need a way of getting through big pieces of plastic more effectively than a little precision blade. Can anyone recommend me a good hobby saw or other such implement?

The Dark Gods thank you!

I have two zona razor saws... a 42 TPI and an ultra fine 52 TPI.

They were about 12 dollars each on Amazon.

I have the GW citadel one. Very happy with it. comes with 2 sets of blades. 1 set small and the other bit longer. Very hapy with it and is pretty precise.

A fine toothed razor saw is what you want. I doubt there's much difference between brands aside from blade replacement, and if you only use it on plastic and resin a single blade should last for years.

Thanks for the recommendations, folks! I'm going to see what my local game store and hobby store has, and default to an online retailer if I can't find anything there.

I echo the recommendations to use a razor saw.

Check out my gallery here
Also I've started taking photos to use as reference for weathering which can be found here. Please send me your photos so they can be found all in one place!!

I have the latest model of hobby saw from Citadel, and it is amazing.

The 42 TPI Zona saw is working like a charm. Thanks for the recommendation!
