February 13, 201412 yr Hi all, Caladin here, fairly unskilled smith, been dabbling off and on in smithing, welding, knife making and armoring for most of my life...leatherwork,sewing,carpentry basically all kinds of 'making stuff'... Been lurking a while decided I ought to say hello... I live just outside Austin Texas. If anyone could point me towards how to make the jaws on wolf style tongs i`d be mighty grateful. Cal-

February 13, 201412 yr There will be a lot of people from your area meeting at Steephollow Forgeworks in Bryan on Saturday Feb, 22. You can find the information on the Balcones Forge website. They will also be having their big demo later in March. Mark Aspery will be the demonstrator. There are members of the group that will open up the forge at Zilker Park there in Austin. Come on out and see us, it is a great group.
