Basic Blacksmithing – camp axe

Learn to blacksmith using a railroad spike. One end will be shaped like a hammer. We will drift an eye into the middle to attach a wooden handle (not provided), then we will forge the blade out of narrow end of the spike. After shaping, the sides will be ground, the edge tapered, the tool heat treated and tempered. The final step is sharpening the edge.

What Our Clients Are Saying

"Friendly and helpful staff! They have some nice handmade items for sale in the front, but the real fun is the rest of the building. This makerspace has sewing machines, a 3D printer, lots of woodworking tools, a car lift, a professional kitchen, and a way or two to make t-shirts. They have group events, and did I mention the friendly staff? This place is perfect for the creative type who doesn't have the room for large equipment in their garage. Stop in and get a tour: you will be impressed!​"
