PE Tools

Post by Yellowshaker »

hey all, years back I used to distribute for ETO Armor. They sold the best PE tools around. Stuff from Thesmallshop.com
Turns out that they are now going to close up shop for good, and whatever tools are left is it. If you are into PE, I suggest getting what you can before they are gone. I have been using this stuff for a long time and it is truly amazing.

Hello,

It is very sad to hear that another supplier is disappearing from the market. :(

I have cooperated with ETO for many years and can only thank them for a great time. :thumbup:

with kind regards,Guido :wave:

It is actually not ETO, it is thesmallshop.com

USTAR makes similar sets. Probably a knock off of TSS design since they look identical.

I bought a Trumpeter branded one a long time ago that also looks very similar to the big one.

I keep looking at these jigs, wondering whether I can get away with just the large sized one in the picture, or whether I should get the middle sized one too?
Oh, and those Chinese ones in the picture look like direct copies of the Thesmallshop.com originals.

While building the Hooben Mark IV, I found that a bending machine is never too big ;)
