Precision folding using the Mr.Hobby GSI-GT81

For careful shaping of etched components, the Mr.Hobby GSI-GT81 Photoetched Parts Bender gives modellers steady control to produce accurate folds. It is intended to work gently on thin metal parts to avoid distortion while delivering clean results.

Durable build for dependable handling

The GSI-GT81 is manufactured from quality metal to provide a firm working platform. That construction helps keep small items steady during bending, improving alignment and reducing accidental damage.

Useful for a range of detailing tasks

This bender suits fine work such as grille frames, tiny brackets, and trim parts across aircraft, armour and vehicle kits, offering the control needed for neat, scale-accurate fittings.

Specifications

  • Material: High-quality metal
  • Function: Bending and folding photoetched parts
  • Compatibility: Suitable for various model kits

A practical tool for those wanting improved bend consistency and cleaner detailing, the GSI-GT81 is a compact addition to any modeller's toolkit.

It handles common etched materials used in model kits, though stainless or thicker metals may need gentler, incremental bends to avoid work hardening.
Using soft pads or thin shims can help protect finished surfaces; additionally, practice jigs or guides can assist repeatable angle setting for multiple identical parts.
It is suited to the tiny components found on typical scale kits; very miniature or ultra-fine etchings benefit from patient, steady handling and practice to get the best finish.
Wipe clean after use, remove any glue or paint residues, and apply a small amount of light oil to pivot points if stiffness appears.
