Monthly Bladesmithing Workshop?

Journal Entry: Wed Apr 24, 2013, 11:44 AM


Plans to destroy my current shop are underway. I'll be remodeling it in sections. The main part is the forge, which will be like an old blacksmith's shop. Bellows, coal forge, grindstone, the complete setup. Of course, this will be once I'm caught up on orders. Which I will stop taking them soon. My whole operation will be shut down for at least a month. So fear not if you haven't gotten your order yet. Patience.

What does this mean? It means that I will be opening my shop up for a weekend out of the month! So, if you were curious to how I do my work and didn't want to watch videos of it or you wanted to watch me forge on your order or hundreds of other knives that I slave away on, then you can come and see me in action.

You want to try to forge yourself? Well that is more or less the reason I am doing this. For most of our demonstrations, whether it is at our 2nd Thursday meeting or the hammer-ins, we can't really let you get in there and get your hands dirty. So if you wanted to at least test out basic forging, I teach you what very little I know and let you hammer and forge at my shop.

When? I'll probably set it up around the 2nd Thursday through Saturday of every month. Once I've remodeled, which you will be updated on that.

How much will it cost? Nothing at all. It will basically be a free mini-workshop. Focused around forging knives. I may come up with some themes and projects for each month. Something worth seeing.

I will give more updates when I begin rebuilding my shop.

As always, feel free to let me know what you think. Good or bad. ;)
