Accurate folding with the Mr.Hobby GSI-GT81 bender

For scale modellers needing neat, repeatable folds, the Mr.Hobby GSI-GT81 Photoetched Parts Bender gives the control required for fine assemblies. It is tailored to manipulate delicate etched components without crushing or distorting thin metal.

Precision meets steady construction

The GSI-GT81 is made from durable metal to offer a reliable platform when forming small parts. Its firm construction helps maintain alignment during bending and reduces unwanted movement that can spoil tiny details.

Perfect for detailed finishing work

Use it on cockpit fittings, fine brackets, and other miniature details to lift the finish of your kits. The GSI-GT81 fits naturally into workflows for aircraft, armour, and vehicle modelling where small-scale accuracy matters.

Specifications

A straightforward, sturdy tool for hobbyists after cleaner bends and better-fitting parts, the GSI-GT81 is handy on any modelling bench.

Will this bender cope with etched detail on small kits?

Yes, it is made to handle the small-scale etched parts found on most aircraft and vehicle kits, offering control for precise creasing and folds.

Can I use aftermarket photoetch with it?

It works well with aftermarket etched sets, though very large or unusually thick plates may require multiple light bends or a specialised press.

How do I avoid marking the parts when bending?

Use a controlled, light pressure and practice on scrap pieces; positioning the part carefully and making incremental bends reduces visible marks.

Any tips for getting consistent angles?

Mark reference lines on parts, use the same seating position each time, and test on scrap to set the angle before committing to the final piece.
