crij Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 Hello all, For those of you in the Connecticut USA area, the following Saturday, Nov 1st is the annual Bring-a-Friend Blacksmith day at the Connecticut Eastern RR Museum, in Willimantic, Ct. Basically it is a day of B.S.ing (2 different ways, one with iron on coal and the other with just hot air) smacking metal, trading stories and tricks and getting away from the house. It will start around 10am, and end somewhere between 2pm and dusk. Come on down with your portable rigs and tools, there may be 1 or 2 forges & anvils available for use. Also bring a friend that is interested in learning to Smith and wants to meet others in the hobby. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me, rcizik5519@earthlink.net or Steve Melady 860-228-2185 smelady254@charter.net.

Truman Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 That sounds like a really great time. I'd go except there is a hammer in at the Lake Champlain Maritime Museum that day (Vergennes, Vermont). A bunch of folks will be making tongs for the new Blacksmith shop at the Museum.
