Blacksmithing Basics @ Pinecrest

For those with little or no metal working skills. This is a hands-on, fun “be a blacksmith for a day” experience. Explore the basics of forge work in a blacksmith shop while making a decorative “S” hook or a bottle opener to take home. Topics include safety, tools and equipment, and beginning techniques for shaping metal. Small class size guarantees lots of one-on-one instruction and lots of time at the forge.

For ages 16+. Cost is $65, which includes all materials (MCHS members get 15% off). Dress for working in a shop. Bring heavy work gloves, eye protection and water bottle.
