Create detailed DIY and workshop-themed projects with this set of six hand tool metal cutting dies. The collection contains a claw hammer, pliers, screwdriver, utility knife, adjustable spanner and smaller spanner, providing a useful assortment of familiar tools for handmade cards and papercraft projects.
Once separated, each tool can be positioned independently. Cut the dies from grey, silver or metallic cardstock for the working parts and use contrasting colours for handles to create more realistic paper-pieced designs. Alternatively, cut each tool from a single colour for simple silhouette-style embellishments.
With individual tools measuring approximately 4.3–6 cm tall, the set works particularly well on A6, 5 × 7 inch and 6 × 6 inch cards. The pieces can be arranged around sentiments, grouped together as a workshop display or combined with other DIY-themed embellishments.
The listing is for the six metal cutting dies only. Photographs may show example cuts to demonstrate the designs created by the dies.
This set is supplied connected and is intended to be separated before first use.
For best results, first gently twist the individual dies away from each other to separate the main set. Remaining connector tabs can usually be removed by carefully wriggling and twisting them with small pliers or nippers. Some tabs may require trimming with fine snips if they do not release easily.
Measurements are approximate and taken from the outer cutting edge. Finished cuts will be slightly smaller.
