Hi all!

I'm in need of a wooden train to borrow for a prop in a film. It's a gift from a grandfather to a boy, under the premise that he has been secretly working hard on it for sometime before the big moment. There are close up shots of it as the boy really examines it with all the love and attention of a boy that has never recieved a gift before.

Please let me know if you have any such toy that could be of use! = )


In addition, we are looking for a suitable shed to film a few shots (a few hours shooting) in. Again, this is where the grandfather has been hiding away crafting this masterpiece. I imagine most of you would have the practical scene to match my envisioned one since that is it's exact purpose. Please let me know if you have such a shed that you are willing to have a few scenes filmed inside.

Kind Regards,

Simon Holland

Hopefully! Because the Beginner's Guide to Building Wooden Trains is quite a formidable piece of literature, i hope i don't have to tackle it myself!

Saw that on TV tonight someone made $ 2000 for renting out their house for one day for a TV shoot.

Now most of us consider our workshop even more important than our house so how much would a shoot in our workshop be worth? :D
