What you will get
Tools are the craftsman's bridge to creativity. Making your own tools is not only satisfying, it is also a holistic endeavor, utilizing your brain, hands, body and senses.
This is a comprehensive foundational course designed to introduce students to the blacksmith's shop, materials you will need and how to use them in a very practical sense. I bring all of my experience to the table, showing you in-depth what I have learned as a professional sculptor.
This is the first course in the Bladesmithing For Woodworkers Series and by the end you will have an understanding of how to get started at your own forge.

Meet your Instructor
Hi, I'm Yori Seeger. I have over 20 years of experience in metal casting, blacksmithing, and sculpting. I am a craftsman at heart and believe that craftsmanship is the ability to create and perfect my work, while art is a language that can be spoken visually. I use art and craft in tandem to improve and challenge my work. I invite you to join me on this journey as we hone our skills together.
