Basic Blacksmithing

DATE: Monday 1/13/25   TIME: 6:00pm - 9:00pm

This is a 5-week class. Please be sure you are available for all five sessions!

Forge new skills by learning the essential elements of blacksmithing. Join us in the Modern Blacksmith Shop where stewardship and tradition meet innovation. In this workshop, you will learn how to use our traditional coal-fired forge, gain hammer and anvil experience to help your project take shape, and get perspectives about the overall history and importance of blacksmithing. 
 
This class starts off by creating basic hooks and wall hooks. We will then progress through projects including a flint striker, cold chisel, fireplace poker, cooking fork, and candle holder. As a result of these projects, you will understand processes including the following:

  • Drawing out to lengthen or thin metal 
  • Punching holes 
  • Bending 
  • Riveting 
  • Welding 
  • Hardening 
  • Heating and cooling metal through tempering
