AntsoftheSky Posted November 17, 2012 Share Posted November 17, 2012 Hello everybody, Glad that I found a forum to hopefully help out with some questions within the blacksmith community. I am 20 years old and currently residing in Midlothian VA, just outside of Richmond, and was wondering if anybody knew of any places that would offer lessons to a beginner in the art. I have only a few months of experience, when I practiced the art in my previous homes. Any tips or leads would be greatly appreciated. Pleasure to be here, and I look forward to speaking with you all. -TJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenn Posted November 17, 2012 Share Posted November 17, 2012 A good polace to start is Blacksmithing Groups in the IForgeIron pages tab > articles. There are several that teach blacksmithing in Va. Go to the meetings and you will meet them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThomasPowers Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 I think you just missed Camp Fenby if you have any interest in historical smithing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
