Miter Shears- this pair is highly rated and has replaceable blades
Nail Studs- I like these because there are a variety of sizes in silver and brass
For under $10, you get a variety of jump rings, lobster clasps and pliers
Traditional broom video
This video shows how I used jute string/rope to make the bristles of a broom. You could use the same technique to make brush bristles.
Alternative materials for bristles:
Paint brush bristles: This is the most common substitute. Just avoid shiny, synthetic bristles. They don’t take to the glue well.
Makeup brush bristles
Dimensions of the matchsticks to make a 1:12 scale washboard:
(2) 1 7/8“ long side pieces
(2) 3/4“ middle pieces (cut one in half lengthwise so you end up with 3 pieces)
(1) 3/4“ wide popsicle stick for the brand name
The cardboard corrugation piece is 3/4“ wide x 1“ long
The gap above the brand name is the thickness of a matchstick, 1/8“
I have lots of projects planned ranging from abandoned miniatures, furniture makeovers, dioramas, accessories, kits and Dollhouse Miniatures in multiple scales. I also have a large Harry Potter build planned for 1“ scale.
