Nigel Northcott reviewed: Blacksmith Experience Day - Anvil Forge

"A great day - I still proudly display the poker in our lounge and have the sculpture I made in our garden. I was delighted and surprised by what I achieved in a single day and thanks go to John and his team for making the day so memorable and productive! I am not hands on and making things has not been a great success for me in the past - all that has changed! Great value for money and a wonderful new experience - go!! I normally flag by late afternoon - but not here on this day!"

Mary MacSwan reviewed: Blacksmith Experience Day - Anvil Forge

"I thoroughly enjoyed my day being a blacksmith and learning some basic techniques. It was tiring as its quite physical but very rewarding. I came away with 2 large pieces which I am very proud of. John and his team are great teachers and incredibly helpful. I would recommend it to anyone interested in doing something a bit different."

"The course was well paced. Starting in the morning with a simple task (poker) that got all the attendees warmed up and on a similar level. Mid morning we started on the more complex project piece. Assisted by John and the team throughout. At a suitable point we broke for lunch and a chance to discuss the project piece and question john on his smithing experience. Back to the forge we continued to work on our individual pieces. The course completed late afternoon, everyone had finished their project. With Johns assistance and finesse we each had a piece of work to be pleased with. Great day with enjoyable company."
