Body Driller 1-17 mm, hobby tool, metal tip

A body driller is a staple on the model bench when bodyshell work calls for clean, accurately placed openings. This Carson Modelsport tool uses a pointed conical metal tip that widens holes from 1 mm to 17 mm, making it suited to careful preparation of thin model body material for fittings and mounting points. The tapered working end supports gradual enlargement instead of jumping straight to one fixed diameter, which helps when a shell needs a precise opening matched to the part being installed. A knurled metal handle adds control in the hand and gives the grip needed for steady pressure during marking, starting and widening each hole. The protective cap covers the tip when the tool is stored, so the pointed end stays protected between bench sessions and while packed with other workshop gear. On RC and scale model projects, this kind of hand tool fits naturally into body preparation, finishing and adjustment work. It suits hobby tasks where a clean opening and controlled placement matter, whether a fresh bodyshell is being prepared or an existing shell needs a new mounting point. Age recommendation: 14 years and up.
