Video: Blacksmithing Introduction Workshop
Thinking of doing our one-day Introduction to Blacksmithing workshop?
Check out this 1 min clip made at one of our recent hands-on workshops in Sydney:
Jamie is taking a group of students through a fun day of
- hand forging a bottle opener
- hammer control and using different types of hammers
- tongs, types and uses
- anvil; different parts, what to look for in a good anvil
- hammer and anvil weights and types for different jobs
- then after lunch, free forging time to experiment and have some more forging fun!
Big thank you to Pierre from Mefflin Knives for the awesome video!
