Blacksmithing
Learn the art of forging steel, and gain a basic understanding of blacksmithing tools. Classes include lessons on heating, hammering, twisting, and punching holes in steel. You will have the opportunity to use this information in creating beautiful projects of your very own, or as gifts for loved ones. Come prepared to work in an industrial shop environment.
