On Friday, Sept 15, at the Twin Falls County Fairgrounds, in Twin Falls ID, with the help of Dorothy Stiegler, we will be teaching an introductory blacksmithing course to approximately 200 kids, and we need your help. After a short safety talk, each instructor will be assigned 4 kids to supervise as they make both a Fredrick cross and a simple S hook. Forge, Hammers, Safety equipment, precut stock and coal will be provided, although you may want to bring a favorite hammer or pair of tongs. Additionally, If you have an anvil that you can bring, that would be helpful, but we will have 2 RR track ASO’s (Anvil Shaped Objects) or actual anvils for every forge. Additionally, we plan on bringing 6 – 8 stump /pole vises to assist with twisting the S hooks.
The plan is to teach classes starting at 9 & 11 Break for lunch (provided) and teach again at 2 & 4. You are cordially invited to stay for supper and to hear Dorothy share her testimony with the kids that evening.
For more information or to volunteer, please contact Henry Davis at (574) 274-0633 or HenryD@mcetoner.com. Due to safety regulations, we will not be able to allow drop-ins on the day of the event so if you think you might be able to help please contact me. Thank you for your help, We look forward to meeting you there.
Thank you again,
Henry E. Davis
