Forging introductory course

A brief introduction to the craft of forging - a spout as a candle holder

Forging is about understanding and grasping the material.

The process is like a kind of conversation between workpiece and person.

The course is aimed at beginners, including small groups - the master blacksmith is of course present to help.

Small workpieces - here a candlestick spout - are produced. Individual wishes can be discussed in advance.
