Tools & Blades

Start your journey toward becoming a masterful maker with tools and blades from Hobby Lobby! We offer an array of hand tools to help you with hobby projects, ranging from model building and electronics to arts and crafts. To get started, gather an assortment of our metal building materials, as well as cutting and finishing tools.

We offer shiny metal sheets and tubes for a wide range of DIY projects and activities, such as robotics projects and remote-control cars. You can also use these materials in jewelry-making and school projects.

We carry tin and copper sheets for cutting shapes. We also have brass rods and aluminum tubes. These materials are great for adding structure and stability to your creation. Their workability allows you to bend, cut, drill, punch, and shape them to your specific design needs.

Pick up an X-Acto Knife, along with replacement blades, so you can make intricate cuts. This precision cutting tool will help you to do detailed tasks such as trimming paper and plastic. Use it with your model kits to cut small parts and delicate components.

Don’t forget to pick up a retractable utility knife as well. Designed to keep your fingers safe when not in use, this style of hobby knife will be great for cutting through a diverse range of materials, from cardboard to leather.

Turn to our finishing tools for a professional look. We have handy gadgets, like bendable alligator clips and curved tweezers, to help you paint and assemble with precision. A set of sanding files will help smooth surfaces for a pristine final product. Lastly, we have battery boxes and hobby motors to get your inventions and devices moving, as well as a battery tester to keep your mechanisms constantly powered up!
