The E.T. Model T-173 photo-etched switches enable accurate replication of control panels, dashboards, and instrument panels in military and civilian models from various eras. The 1.2 mm diameter detail matches typical buttons and switches used in vehicles and aircraft from World War II, through the Cold War, to modern times. This set is perfect for building dioramas, technical mock-ups, or vehicle interiors – from tanks and armored personnel carriers, to truck cabins and aircraft cockpits.

The product does not include additional accessories such as metal gun barrels or resin parts, but offers an exceptional level of detail and ease of adaptation to many types of models. Photo-etched brass ensures precise geometry and sharp details unachievable with plastic parts.

I recommend this set for intermediate and advanced modelers who demand full control over the level of detail in their projects and faithful reproduction of the original. Perfect for larger projects and batch production, especially when building mock-ups and collector presentations.

• Assembly difficulty level: 2/5 – requires skills in working with micro parts and cyanoacrylate glue
• Benefit: Exceptional realism of control panels and interiors in scale models

E.T. Model T-173 1.2mm Button Switch is an excellent choice for modelers who care about authenticity and a professional look for vehicle and aircraft scale models. Check the quality and possibilities of these photo-etched switches in your own projects!
