I've been given a battle of britain memorial flight kit and am a beginner. I've got myself some tools from watching Youtube videos so I have the following
a scalpel
sanding sticks
needle files
a razor saw
side cutters
tweezers
I'm constantly looking ahead in the build guide and dreading the chin aerials.
The chin 'H' aerials on the Lancaster are about the thickness of a hair. They are attached to the sprue by the normal 2-3mm blob of plastic, not from the base but from the actual aerial part.
It looks like even if I am super careful, these things are going to break when I remove them.

How would you get the parts off the sprue?
