OUT-STANDING, jaz! Do you use a hot knife for any cutting, like cutting the larger pieces to shape or similar jobs?

I have seen people say this but I just saw it, and wear a face mask red the dust, and use the dust until it turns yellow
then hoover it up

Very interesting and impressive. I really like your work.

One week ago, I received a Proxxon wirecutter. I tried it a little vit and it worked very well. I have cut a few pieces, like this block on which I added a N scale building and added some ground cover and bushes.

Fantastic works of art! Your works seem alive. I can hear the cars and trucks, the dog barking, the water splashing around the boats, and more.
