Mary reviewed: Blacksmithing for Beginners - Full Day Forging for One

"I can thoroughly recommend this course. Chris was a fabulous teacher and was great fun to spend the day with. I came away having learnt a huge amount about being a blacksmith, the history of blacksmithing and also with a sense of fulfillment at having tried my hand at a new skill. "

Simon Benn reviewed: Blacksmithing for Beginners - Full Day Forging for One

"I had not been striking metal on an anvil since 1980 at school. Chris helped me create two pieces during the day by explaining why and how I was going to do the next task, then watching Chris do the task, followed by me doing the same task with guidance all the way. The time flew by as the conversation throughout the day was great. As an experience there is nothing I would change. The leaf key-ring I made now holds the keys to my workshop as a permanent reminder of a wonderful day. It has left me wanting to do more, as the sense of achievement I got from this day is so good. I thoroughly recommend this day as you will leave the forge with a big smile on your face."
