Our blacksmiths and others from around Central Texas gather on Thursday evenings, just as they often did in guilds during the 1800s, to practice their craft, talk shop and learn new techniques. Our yearly shop fee for this true tradesman experience is well worth the price, if you’re interested in working with hot metal or just networking. This is not a substitute class for beginners, and is intended for practice and networking for students who have blacksmithing experience.
