Groove Tube/GPMR8140Cuts perfect grooves in balsa quickly and easily

The Groove Tube is designed to create grooves in balsa for installing aileron torque rods and elevator inter-link wires. Modelers simply the push the Groove Tube along the wood surface the hollow end catches and holds the balsa shavings, so there's no mess. After each pass, modelers then press on the other end the spring-loaded plunger forces the shavings out, readying the Groove Tube for another pass.
