January 29, 200620 yr Hi every one again. A while a go I asked about apprenticship in australa, and talked to the swedish goverment about different ways about it. Today I got an letter frome the swedish school minister. He wrote that if I can find a smithing school thats is for at least 6 months, I can get some money from a fond for "( hope I put it right) culture saving work"?? and the rest of the money from the swedish goverment. So now is my big questions: Does any one know if there is any sort of smithing shool that is at least 6 monuts long in australian? or any one how lives in australian, how might be abel to put togeter a 6 monuts long course? Swe_Karl (never let the dream fall a part )Edit: spelling corrected
March 1, 200620 yr Hey all! I've done some research. I would say that a good starting point would be http://hsc.csu.edu.au/metals_engineering/careers/2341/Blacksmith.htm This is a TAFE (Technical and Further Education) site. TAFE is a government-run technical school that operates nationwide. If you're looking for a six-month or greater course, look no further. If you need any other help, give me a shout :-)
March 1, 200620 yr Can't do any better than Smudger. And to add fuel to the fire, on the way to work I pass a building whare the positions vacant sign out the front has 'blacksmith' at the top of the list. That's in the western suburbs of Melbourne.
March 2, 200620 yr Thanks all. I would have gone and done it myself, except for the fact that I'm on the left-hand side of the country, rather than the right (which in this case means both right hand *and* correct) Glad to be of help!
March 2, 200620 yr ... plus the guy wants to be *both* a blacksmith *and* an Australian.... Who am I to stand in the way of such self-improvement? ;-)
