You may wish to bring a work light and extension cord as hotel lighting isn’t always the best for Miniaturing.
Bring a camera to take pictures of instructor samples and special setups/tools used. Modern phones usually have good cameras in them.
ALWAYS ask permission first before taking a photo of the Tutors work.
