RP Toolz make a number of punch and die sets but this is a new one on me. Its an oak leaf punch similar to those used in card making but this one designed for smaller scales Birch, lime and maple are the other shapes they are doing. http://rptoolz.unas.hu/en/leafmakerHappy Modelling

I saw their leaf maker punches advertised in this month's 'Airfix Model World' (great magazine!) and was really impressed then. I particularly like that the miniature leaves are punched out of the real thing, which makes life a lot easier, no need to paint, and imagine how realistic it will look when creating an autumn scene in a diorama with hundreds of leaves scattered on the ground? Also useful for making very realistic looking foliage on the trees instead of the more usual commercial modelling products or the often used dried tea leaves?
A great product and I'm sure it will sell in the thousands over time.
