About this class

This half-day course is devoted to introducing absolute beginners to the art of blacksmithing. You will learn how to taper, scroll, bend, twist, and step a metal bar to make a J-hook. These are useful to hang your coat, hat, umbrella, plant, or whatever you want. A great way to get hooked on blacksmithing! :)
