Intro to Blacksmithing – BBQ Edition

In this fun and foundational class we will be forging square two pronged forks, square tapers, practicing our drawing out technique, developing general hammer control and learning to use anvils in synergy with your hammer strikes.

We will also be learning make a simple scroll and a twist pattern. We can add a stake flipper or BBQ sauce spoon to the other end, at your option.

Our goal is to create unique steel utensils for roasting treats over a fire or holding a hot strip of searing hot meat safely away from your fingers.

You should wear closed toe shoes, and bring a refreshing beverage to combat the heat of the forge. We will have an intermission for rest and/or a snack.

This blacksmithing class is suitable for ages 16 to adult.
