Doug is going to make a Hofi style hammer, sawtooth trammel, candlestand, Tomahawk from a horse shoe rasp, "wax for all seasons", and other things as well.

Don't miss this great opportunity to see one of the best instructors at John C. Campbell!!!!!!!!!

Please RSVP if you are coming so I can get a count for lunch.

Please consider bringing an item or two for Iron In The Hat, and a chair to relax in.

Everyone is always welcome! More info at: Blacksmith Guild of Viriginia - Home

Great demo!
This was a great day and my 3 newcomers are already making plans to come to the hammer in.
Thanks again for hosting this.

During the demo I asked Doug if he had tried an Appalachian style power hammer which got some laughs.

I understand the humor but it's a DIY helve style power hammer design
