It all depends on how you use it for cutting.

Nail clipper? for removing nubs? 0.o... i go try My cutter is the daiso type lol. Cut is not clean, leaves stress marks behind. Is the Tamiya cutter is big improvement? $20 for a cutter seems abit overpriced leh... Do you have any techniques for placing stickers/ decals? currently using a craft knife to place the stickers, and failing at it...

Normally people don't cut so deep in. They leave a tiny nub on the surface and sand it smooth.

Thats what i currently do, at least to a certain extent. My clippers are so bad that i have to trim down the nub using a craft knife before sanding. But parts like the inner frame is a pain to sand... so trying to experiment with ways to remove nubs. Suggestions? I played around with scissors, terrible idea... going to try nail cutters now

Even by using the Tamiya side cutter, it will still leave very slight nubs. So end up still have to sand.
