Blacksmithing Experience Day - Stroud, Cotswolds, Gloucestershire
Description
Ever wanted to try your hand at blacksmithing? Here’s your chance to dive into the world of fire, hammer and steel in a fun, beginner-friendly experience. We’ll start the day with a hot drink and a relaxed chat about health & safety. Then, it’s off to the forge to practice the techniques used by blacksmiths for centuries. Your first creation will be a classic: a forged hook. This will require several techniques, from drawing out a taper, to scrolling to twisting. If there's time (there usually is but everyone is different), then we'll forge a fire poker, or similar item.
