The demonstration will begin with Richard arriving at the

 

forging station as a

 

blacksmith unloaded, equipped with only

 

a hammer and a pair of hands. As the demonstration progresses

 

he will make tools as they are needed and explain

 

their use. This promises to be an entertaining, vigorous,

 

noisy and energetic event.
