In the basic blacksmithing class we focus on the basics of forging, which is the foundation for everything you need to become a great blacksmith. No experience is required, and I provide all the tools you will need for this class. This class is great for someone who has very little experience and wants to learn the basics. You will leave with an s-hook that we use to learn a few techniques (point, taper, scroll, twist), a hot/cold cut chisel, and a pair of forge tongs.
