March
MARCH MEETING HAS BEEN CANCELED
Demonstrator: Mark Henderson
Content: Hammer In
Location: 275 South 400 East Salem, Utah 84653
Date & Time: March 21st, 9:00 am
Fee: $15
Iron Trade: N/A
Note: Hello. I would like you invite you to my shop, the Blue Rose Forge for the March meeting of the Great Basin Blacksmith Guild.
I will be hosting the meeting on March 21 at 0900. Since I could not think of a topic to demonstrate,
we have decided to have a hammer-in.
We will have 4-5 forging stations set up, maybe more if anyone else is able to bring an anvil and stand so everyone should be able to get their tongs in the fire.
If you have a project in mind, I will help see if we can bring it to life. The only requirement is that we try and finish it in one day. I have a vast scrap pile full of various different springs and other tool steel
and if you need something specific for your project you can send me a message and I will try to round it up.
There will be welders available and most tooling you need to have a great forging experience.
The price for this hammer-in will be $15, and will include lunch.
As always, a great time will be had by all. I am looking forward to seeing all of you on March 21.
