“If one of you knows how to straighten out wire, please post it!â€
Grendals, how I straighten out copper wire or any small wire, is to bend it as best to straight as I can by hand. Then I have a wooden plate and ruler, place the wire between and roll back in forth until the wire is straight. Sometimes it takes a second or two to get the wire rolling. Instead of using a ruler, I have also use a 1 inch by 1inch by 6 inch long piece of wood to add more pressure. I never used this technique on brass wire but with enough pressure should straighten out.
The resin kit is a nice upgrade and detail sharp.
Also, in my previous post I said I had the MPC kit MF, correction I have the AMT/Ertl cut away MF.
