Overview
Suggested: Take Blacksmithing Basics first
Make items you would find in and around a farmhouse in the 19th century. Every participant will make a dinner bell with a striker, a letter opener, and hooks of various sizes. Small class size guarantees one-on-one instruction and lots of time at the forge. Dress for working in a shop with a dirt floor, and for the weather (shop is heated by a wood-burning stove only).
Please bring: Heavy work gloves, eye protection, water bottle
