Small painting tip

A small tip regarding painting very small parts, that can be difficult to handle - and even tend to get lost: I use poster-board needles, that are stuc into an "invisible" part of the part. And then a piece of blue-tack is used to pin the whole assembly to my working tray. Thus:

What you see here are the two cable-drums, that are to be attached to the rear of the B-Zug.

Hello Peter,

Interesting tip.
I often use some steel wire, 0.3mm diameter, I drill a corresponding hole in the part to be maintained and pin the other side of the wire in a block of balsa.
