If you've ever assembled, tried to assemble, or wanted to assemble one of Miller Rngineering's brass micro structures, then you know one of the most time consuming part of the process is removing the multitude of sprues that must be removed in order to have tight seam lines.
Miller recommends using needle files & fine sand paper. Now either I'm inept using files or I just lack patience, but I had to find a better way. That's when I dragged out my Dremel Moto-Tool. There was a small gray polishing stone & one light touch to the sprues from the back side and voila, the sprues disappeared. No more laborious filing & sanding.

My favorite tool for these kinds of kits is a photo etch scissor! You can cut the sprue right off and there's almost no need for sanding the part afterward.
