About This Class

Come and practice your skills with our guidance. Blacksmith Open Forge at DIYcave provide the perfect opportunity to spend a fun afternoon honing your skills at the time-honored DIY craft of shaping, tapering, splitting, twisting, and punching steel to create art, jewelry, and functional items. Develop the skills you learned in the Blacksmithing classes you have taken and begin forging steel in true Maker fashion.

Bring your own materials and project ideas and our Blacksmith instructors will be there to help guide you along. We do not teach a formal curriculum during Open Forge, however someone will be there if you have any questions or need assistance.
