How to Use:
- Design Your Pattern: Freely design your perforation pattern on the guide sheet. Use a pencil (recommended) so the center points remain visible and not covered by ink
- Check Distance: Verify spacing and measurements to ensure your pattern fits the part
- Attach to Part: Clean the surface and attach the guide to the desired location on your model part
- Mark Center Points: Punch each center point with an awl to increase precision and create a starter dimple
- Drill with Pin Vise: Pierce each marked point with a pin vise of suitable drill bit size

Important Note:
The adhesive strength of the guide tape is reduced by oil. If the guide tape does not adhere properly to the part, clean and remove any oil from the surface before attaching the guide for optimal results.

Why Choose GUNPRIMER CUSTOM GUIDE [for Pin Vise]:
Drilling multiple holes in precise patterns is one of the most challenging aspects of model customization. Without a guide, holes end up misaligned, unevenly spaced, or drilled in the wrong locations entirely. GUNPRIMER's Pin Vise Custom Guide eliminates these problems by allowing you to design your pattern first, verify spacing, and then drill with confidence. The transparent material lets you see exactly where each hole will be positioned, while the center point markings ensure your awl and drill bit start in the perfect location every time.
Design Applications:
- Vent Patterns: Create realistic cooling vents on chest armor, backpacks, and shields
- Thruster Details: Add authentic exhaust port patterns to thrusters and boosters
- Sensor Arrays: Design precise sensor hole patterns on head units and visors
- Mechanical Grilles: Create radiator-style perforation patterns
- Custom Detailing: Add unique perforation designs that set your builds apart
- Symmetrical Patterns: Design and execute perfectly symmetrical drilling on paired parts
Pro Tips:
- Use Pencil: Always use pencil (not pen) when drawing patterns so center points remain visible
- Awl First: Punch center points with an awl before drilling to prevent bit wandering
- Right-Size Bit: Match your pin vise drill bit size to your design requirements
- Test Pattern: Practice your pattern on scrap plastic before applying to final parts
- Spacing Planning: Use graph paper to plan complex patterns before drawing on guide
- Symmetry Tool: For paired parts, trace your first pattern to create a mirror template
Common Perforation Patterns:
- Linear Vents: Straight rows of evenly-spaced holes
- Honeycomb: Hexagonal hole arrangements for realistic grilles
- Circular Arrays: Holes arranged in circular patterns for thrusters
- Random Scatter: Organic, battle-damaged perforation effects
- Geometric Designs: Custom angular patterns for mechanical aesthetics
Recommended Tools to Use With:
- Pin vise hand drill
- Micro drill bits (0.3mm - 2.0mm)
- Scribing awl or center punch
- Mechanical pencil (0.3-0.5mm lead)
- Ruler or measuring tool
Skill Level:
Intermediate to advanced modelers. Requires experience with pin vise drilling and pattern design planning for best results.
Safety Reminder:
Always drill slowly and carefully. Ensure parts are properly secured to prevent slipping. Wear eye protection when drilling.
