For detailed kit work, the Tamiya 74046 - 3 Piece Basic File Set provides a compact selection of files suited to fine trimming. It helps modellers tidy up plastic parts and refine joins during build or repair work.
The set contains a flat, round and half-round file. Together they let you square edges, open or refine circular holes, and blend contours where panels meet. They are appropriate for common modelling materials including plastics and softer metals.
Because the files are small they offer good tactile feedback and steady control. That makes them useful when working on small fixings, trim details or internal mounting points where precision matters.
This basic set complements other bench tools for a cleaner finish. Use it for initial shaping before sanding, or to tweak part fit during test assembly.
