Bige610 Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 Hey guys. Been lurking around the forums for a while and really want to learn about working with metal and blacksmithing. I was going to take some welding classes at the local Community College but that fell through. I was wondering if anyone in the Area around Fox Lake, Illinois is taking on students right now. I work 9-5 m-f so would probably a weekend deal would be best. My email is [email protected]. Thanks Erik Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

patrick Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 I am hosting a hammer-in at my shop this Saturday, 10/18/08 starting at 9am. I am just outside Beloit, WI. This is not a formal class, but would give you a chance to see and do a few things at the forge. Send me and email at [email protected] for directions.

CurlyGeorge Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 I agree with Dutchmancreek. Contact the IVBA (ILLINOIS VALLEY BLACKSMITH ASSOC). We have members all over the state and a lot of hammerins. Surely there is a member near you that would be willing to help you out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
