• Helpful extras for beginners:
• Tweezers for handling small parts
• Sanding sticks, files, or sandpaper (various grits) for smoothing surfaces
• Plastic putty or filler to fix small gaps or imperfections
• Cutting mat to protect your workspace
• Paint brushes in a few sizes, or basic airbrush if you want to level up later
