The discovery of iron and how to work it changed human history. Tools, weapons, and daily life haven't been the same since. Here's your chance to learn to control one of the basic elements of modern human life. In this three hour class you will be introduced to the basic smithing techniques of hammering, drawing-out, cutting, bending, and twisting. Using these techniques and a coal-fired forge you will bring a piece of iron to an incandescent heat and with anvil, hammer, and tongs create one or more cooking skewers or a decorative and useful 'S'-hook.
