I came upon this website quite by chance (don't we all, from time to time? ), and was really impressed with the range of tools they have for model making, and especially model painting. This rotary painting Clips base really struck me as being really useful, potentially : Something like it could be improvised, yes, but that's extra work..and time (something us oldies are not richly endowed with).
Do check out their surprisingly diverse array of bits. The only downside about this hot resource, is that it's in the Land Downunder (where people 'Chunder'... ).

Well spotted, Rad. If it can be had for a bargain price, Sherlock Rad will detect it. However, the main reason for providing the link was to highlight the range of tools, and accessories, they offer here. I can't think of a UK modelling site with as good a range.Rad_Schuhart wrote:https://www.aliexpress.com/item/3298897 ... 55346a1250

The more I look, the more there is to find on this website. There are more than 70 types of modelling putty and fillers, for example- like this one:

Anyone having access to a corner store with holdings such as these, would be truly blessed...or broke, after a mega spend.
This reminds me of playing with 'Potty Putty' as a kid (it had nothing to do with WC type potties ... ). Nothing bounced quite like it.
