Making your own Heavy User Parts

Making your own Heavy User Parts
Some Gundam MG models come with additional parts for you to customize your mech - like handles and vents. While vents are available from WAVE under their Wave Option Parts line, you can make cool handles on your own.

1. Buy some thin brass tubes/rods (For Singaporeans: available from Art Friend Crafts shop at Bras Basah Complex)
2. Cut the length you need with a pair of wire cutters
3. Bend to desired shape - I use a pair of long-nose pliers
4. Glue to part - I use superglue.

For added strength, I normally drill small holes first to insert the part before gluing
You can see how the end product looks on my PG Zaku here...
