Bring any other tools you usually use or might find useful.
Optivisor, extra work light. These are handy tools which you could use in our sessions, but it is not essential that you buy them just for this week. It is your option!
A good way to carry all of these tools is to buy a small inexpensive plastic tackle box. These are usually available at department stores year round.
Please note an updated tool list may be sent to you the week prior to the convention.
If not listed here, we will provide materials such as glues and paints
