1:350 Photo-Etched Handrail Set A, ship detail set

The 1:350 Photo-Etched Handrail Set A adds fine deck-edge detail to ship models with a metal fret carrying 8 different kinds of handrail posts. Each etched section is made for builders who want slimmer, more scale-faithful rail lines than thicker molded parts can provide, creating a cleaner silhouette along decks, platforms and superstructure levels. The set works by passing 0.1 mm diameter wire through the etched posts, forming handrails with a precise, linear look across longer runs and tighter sections alike. That mechanism gives control over how railings follow corners, edges and stepped structures on naval subjects. The fret layout groups multiple railing styles for different positions on a ship, which helps when matching the right post pattern to varied deck arrangements. As an assembly kit, it is intended for hands-on model finishing, with an assembly time stated at 600 minutes. Used on a 1:350 Japanese Navy ship, the etched parts can sharpen the appearance of perimeter walkways, bridge areas and elevated platforms where rail detail stands out most clearly. The set may also be used with other Tamiya 1:350 scale Japanese Navy model ships, making it a focused upgrade for builders refining a fleet display or a single showcase build.
