How to make fine trim lines.

Here is a quick and easy way to make fine trim lines on your models,stationers sell a product called 'Chart tape' this comes in various narrow widths and is basically for making up those statistic charts you see in the managers office,there are also different colours as well.
For trimming and what are termed peck lines it is ideal,once more it takes a nice curve as it is slightly deckled,just press well down and apply a coat of Johnsons Klear to seal the edges,thats it job done and it looks good as well.
