Miriam,

On the first class that I took I carried in a huge tub with every thing I could imagine that would ever be needed. Boy was that an over kill. But I would do it again as in the second class I took, there was nothing furnished except snacks.

Each class and each host is different.
I furnish:
*drinks and snack for each day
*a bucket of screw drivers, hemostats and scissors for the students to use
*rags (cut up flannel sheets as they are the best thing since clean undies VBG)
*netting strips for things like "flossing" the tension disks
*put out small containers for trash such as thread and dirty rags
*put out smaller containers to contain the parts coming off machines
*have available an air compressor to blow out the dust bunnies (outside usage only)

Take your usual tools, but don't go out and buy any new ones, yet. Ray has tools to lend and tools for sale. I usually buy something new from him each year. I have a tool addiction.
It is a good idea to bring a lamp/ light some classrooms are dark. Ray will have extension cords for the machines and lights. ALSO Wear clothes that can get dirty as they will (no fashionistas).

I think you are set with the machines that you have mentioned.

Yeah, I was thinking I don't want to do stuff I already know when I'm there. I'm thinking I should take snacks.
