thanks for the review. 90% godhand quality with half the price and better availability really sells it! especially if you sand the parts afterwards anyway
Dude thanks so much for teaching us about the mechanics of the cut, and how dual blade cutters stress the plastic so much more. I was also not aware of the phenomenon you mentioned about when the part is still on the parts tree, how it has no where else to release the stresses. Made so much sense, now I will be able to choose some appropriate nippers for each of the two cutting steps. I am thinking of using some dual blade cutters for the initial cut, since the plastic will “push back” when still on the sprue, more of a crushing motion that I think will be well suited to dual blades. Does that make sense to you? I will then finish up with a godhand SPN-120 once the part is free from the sprue. I also have some large Knipex 72 series for when I need to cut the runners.
Another way to prevent damage to a single bladed nipper when removing a part is to cut at a 45 degree angle diagonally. This causes the gate and sprue to actually move, assuming the plastic isn't too rigid. It also helps with future cuts to cut in the opposite diagonal, meaning if you cut diagonally left, the other side, you cut diagonally right.
I didn't know about the rule to never cut from the sprue with the single bladed nipper... my DSPIAE chipped because of it... I wonder why my GodHand entry nipper ($20) was still in good shape despite being inferior... man... this hobby is great but so many expensive mistakes to learn from...
I lost my DSPIAE nippers to a bit of sprue that was really too large for me to be cutting with precision nippers like that. RIP. I bought a pair of Turbo Dork nippers and keep them in the nice DSPIAE case now.
The Dspiae is just as good as the godhand IMO, meanwhile if you take the insert out of the case it comes with you can fit a full gunpla toolkit in there. I've got the nippers, a retractile x-acto with extra blades, some glass files, some parts separators and a panel liner all in there.
Well, everyone has some personal experience, I'm just saying how it feels for me ^_^ And yeah, taking the toolset from Dspiae is very good move too, there are a lod of good stuff in there for the price
Nice review! I'm just curious now that it has been months, what's the condition of both nippers? GodHand has been 4 years older than your Dspiae during the recording of the video, yes?
I use mostly godhands because I like it a bit more and no problems whatsoever. Sometimes I use Dspiae and no problems either. But I don't build so often last weeks
Мне кажется тут уже мало куда можно двинуться. Тоньше лезвие вряд ли, улучшения по металлу непременно скажутся на стоимости, ну и т д. Даже этот инструмент (годхенды кстати уже очень давно производят) выглядит по сравнению с классикой какими-то космосом, хотя на деле все просто)
It's not always possible, unfortunately (in my case it's not). I could insert some links to the products but while people have different places to buy the stuff (in different parts of the world) it's up to them to decide. I just share my experience, nothing more.
no hate to your channel, as this is more towards the industry. but were cutting plastic. meaning both cutting parts can be thin. were not cutting metal. in fact since plastic is so soft, you could have a cutter made nearly as thin as scalpels. this is one of the most fad tool ive ever seen. as someone who cuts all kinds of material, everything from rubber, plastic, to copper and stainless, im amazed what the industry will make to sell unecessary stuff. and as someone who worked in production these feel like they tried to repurpose messed up parts, in production. while still make some money
Well I personally don't think that it's unesessary stuff. From the engeneering point of view it's got the reasons to make just one blade thin just because the man is not a robot - There are lots of factors coming when you make a cut (some twists, etc) so I'd say both thin blades would be less durable just because of that. Well, anyway I've got your point, man. If I'd have some nippers with both thing blades I would defenitely test them ^_^

Yep, it anyway makes the whole process a lot more fast and easy so it is worth investing

Yep, I found it works too, especially if the nubmarks are quite tiough (old kits have that a lot)
for a beginner like me, this is such an informative video. thank you for the advise in cutting as well. ✌️

look up the hobbymio gunpla kit, it is absolutely insane
very informative, i will be buying a DSPIAE
Thank you for the great explanation dude! ❤
It maybe symbol but just explaining in detail is extremely helpful. Thx
I think Ruitools purple nipper are the best, or something between quality of God hand and dispiae

I’ve said it before and weather people believe me or not, I like my DSPIAE ST-A 3.0 more than my God Hand SPN-120
I'm with you on that one. I have 3 pair of the DSPIAE nippers, all are the high end of the line.
Интересно какой будет следующий этап технологического улучшения? 🤔 Как их сделать еще лучше? Сменное лезвие и более тонкое?

А со сменными лезвиями уже вроде как WAVE выкатили
Why not just use strong side cutters like ones by Knipex to remove from the sprue then a scalpel to clean up?
Because oneblades is just faster and more confy (personal preference), nothing more
Should include an affiliate link for your efforts. Would totally help find the right product 😊

Am I the only one who has a pair of GH that love to leave stress marks?
I find it ironic that GW's nippers are the worst on the market.
Why I'm not surprised ^_^
Hard to watch with that noise in the background
this is just lo-fi music, bro.. not a noise ^_^
