What a great way to spend a weekend. I got to heat up steel and bang it into shape with a hammer and anvil.
We fullered it and tapered it and punched it and twisted it, just like someone would have done a thousand years ago.
The Eveleigh workshop is a joy to be in. So much history, the place still vibrates from the toil and chatter of the workers of an era long gone.
I can’t recommend Eveleigh Works highly enough.
These blokes are keeping old traditions alive and are happy to share their craft with everyone.
Thank you.
Great two-day course that was paced just right by our Instructor James, to get a bunch of novices excited about working hot metal. Can't wait to do the next course (hard to choose one) pending financial approval from OIC Homefront.
