RESCHEDULED!!!

Want to construct a wood structure in a day?

Free Clinic     

This is a Virtual Train ‘N Camp where you will learn to construct a Wood Craftsman Kit by Bar Mills. 

Since this year’s edition will be virtual, and taught by the staff at Bar Mills.  There are very specific lists of tools and supplies you’ll need.  You will have as homework prior to the Camp.  RSVP to training@piedmont-div.org  . Should be a lot of fun learning from the experts at Bar Mills!  An important note:  The format of this Camp will be different.  The class will be broken up into three sessions, morning, afternoon and evening.  Each session will be about an hour, or so, long.  During that hour there will be direct instruction on completing the kit.  The class will then break so you’ll have time to complete the work.  The next session will then start with questions and then go on to the next steps.  I think this format will be very interesting but will allow you to complete a quality model in one day.

The kit will be:

Springfield Station V1 (although the student can pick V2 or the kit with both versions in it, if they wish).

Building a wood structure kit

Weathering with Washes and PanPastels:  The participant will learn the skills needed to realistically weather rolling stock in any scale.  Participants will be provided a tool and material list and will need to have applied a flat finish to the cars or locomotives they wish to weather prior to the Train ‘N Camp.  This Camp will feature new techniques to more realistically weather trucks and lower portions of the piece of equipment, utilizing washes and PanPastels combined. This Train ‘N Camp will be virtual so you will need a camera connected to your computer.
