Classes

This 8hr class is designed to establish a strong foundation in forge safety, setting up an anvil for your working height, stance at the anvil, hammering form, hammer control, coke fire handling, heat colour identification, tool and anvil identification, forge layout, and team forging protocol. The skills we focus on are drawing out, tapering, changing material cross section from round to square, flattening, straightening, and bending. Progression through class material is based on personal skill and learning speed. Students make a simple ring handled firepoker as a learning exercise and then work on a personal project of their choice for the rest of class. Typical projects include knives, nail irons and nails, leaf keychains, wall hooks, spoons, bbq skewers etc. Students take home everything they make and will receive a certificate of completion for Introduction to Blacksmithing.

If you already have a machine, bring it to class and we can train you how to maintain it and use it. If you want to explore welding as a career option, our Red Seal instructor can help you get a feel for what to expect on the job. If you are training for certification, we can help you prepare and get the best marks you can.
