Best With screw: Augenweide Micro woodworking tool

Buy on Amazon

The augenweide micro woodworking tool is capable of outshining several other tool featured in this list in overall features in its price range. This is a great set of tools for projects needing miniature holes. It comes with the regular set of pin vices that vary in size and these delightful ones have the same width but each one is mindblowly finer than the next. The mini-vise, pin chuck, and the micro-drills are perfect for that purpose. The tool itself will work quite well with the drill bits in the plastic case.

It's a convenient set, and other than the drill bits, it is surprisingly sturdy. The bench vise is a nice bonus. It is great for holding small parts and the drill bits are of good quality and the good value for the dollor. The pin vise is also good quality and good value for the dollor.

Best For Clamping small And odd shapes: Irwin Micro woodworking tool

Buy on Amazon

We know from years of feedback from readers, customers and amazon sellers, what most people want in a convenient and appropriate tool. The irwin micro woodworking tool is exactly that - it's a simple tool that hits all the right notes. It is the ideal clamp for most clamping and holding needs on small craft projects. Depressing a plastic lever allows you to “pump” the jaws closer together, while pressing a metal trigger releases the clamp. The slightly stouter Quick-Grips are much more rigid. They work for small repairs.

These are for very light work and are the right tool for the delicate work of model building. It is easy to release, hold tight and pretty strong for their size. They are easy to use and hold parts tightly and securely but don’t damage anything. It is a tool that likely will be on loan to friends and neighbors who will need something like this for a single task.

Why We Like This:

Works great for model ship building
Great size and ease of use for building scale models
Good brand reputation
