Beginner blacksmith

Description

You will have great fun on this beginner's blacksmith course. We start by getting the forge lit, then we will be ready to start your project. The morning will last approximately four hours, in which time you will forge out your own poker, toasting fork or hanging basket bracket. It’s a very relaxed morning, everything is done at your own pace. Safety glasses, gloves and aprons are provided. Please wear steel toecaps if possible, or walking boots, jeans and long sleeve non flammable top. It can get a little mucky. It can get noisy. Most of all it’s just great fun! Lunch not included. Hot and cold drinks provided throughout the morning. Shop within 1 mile of forge. Fridge and microwave available.

I discovered blacksmithing a little later in life and trained at the National School of Blacksmithing in Hereford. Before this, blacksmithing and metalwork was a hobby. I’m now a maker of things, one-of-a-kind builds and love crazy ideas. Over the last few years I’ve been lucky enough to work on a lot of amazing projects including castles, film props, sculptures, and one off unique art pieces. If it needs to be historically accurate or just a repair to your favourite old thing, I’m more than happy to help,
