I recently did a blacksmith course at Toowoomba in Southern Queensland and while there we visited a museum that had a pioneer blacksmith shop. Thought I would post a couple of pics just for interest. Unfortunately the blacksmith wasn't working that day. I would have liked to have had a chat with him. The shop was quite extensive and had some interesting items. I would have only a couple of suggestions: Move the plastic oil containers out of sight in a cupboard or something. I think I could find a better spot for that lovely swage block. Don't like the reference on the signboard to the 'smithy' as a person. The smithy is the place! He had a couple of great anvils but they were covered with oil rags to stop the rust. Interesting place though and very nice people who run it. Here are the pics:
