About

Learn the fundamentals of properly handling red-hot steel, using tongs to get it from the forge to the anvil. In the process of making this versatile hanger, you'll use hammer and tongs to bend, shape, taper, and punch holes in hot metal.

Blacksmithing is a simple craft, but it's not easy to master. Come and enjoy a day at the forge with some like-minded people, build your blacksmithing skills, and make something useful while you’re at it.

Details

This class is held in an open-air workshop, so dress accordingly.
