Blacksmithing 101

If you’re a beginner, this blacksmithing workshop is for you! You’ll start with the basics: tending the coal fire, hammer control, use of the anvil and tongs. Once you are comfortable with the fundamentals, you’ll move on to some hot iron forging projects, such as a variety of handy hooks, plant hangers, bottle openers, key chain fobs, and more. Bob will have samples of many projects for you to examine. You’ll go home with striking ironwork you’ve forged yourself, and a taste for more. (If you already have smithing skills, join this class and Bob will have a new challenge for you!)
