Daryl Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 Welcome. I apprenticed for Blacksmith (Kovac) here in Canada under a Croat. He grew up in your neck of the woods and left when it still known as Yugoslavia. He went to an industrial trade school in Krasic to learn his Blacksmith trade, and did part of his apprenticeship helping out the military doing horseshoeing to go along with his regular duties. You might wish to contact people in Krasic to see if there might be documents left or even better someone to learn from. Boge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
