Come join us on Groundhog Day for the February clinic at 7pm PST. Even if Punxsutawney Phill predicts we will have six more weeks of winter, we will always have model trains, right?

This month we will have guest clinician, James Knabb, a modeler from the great state of Texas, presenting 3D Pen and Small Details.

James will walk through the basics of how to use a 3D pen and show how you can use a 3D Pen for your layout, such as using it to repair railings for cars and adding small details. He will also discuss incorporating left-out, forgotten details and new ideas into your layout using a 3D Pen.

Here is the information for the meeting:

Our Eastside Clinic will meet this Thursday at 7PM.

Our Topic:

What’s on your work bench, another look.

Please chime in with some helpful ideas. For instance, I will discuss bendable plywood and some simple techniques in scratch building wood structures that I have used. There has been a lot of chatter lately about ACC, so, any comments?

We will meet at 7PM.

Here is the link. I will open the room at 6:30.
