SUMMARY:Handled Struck Tools 2017
DESCRIPTION:Handled Struck Tools Workshop\nMinimum six students. Maximum eight students.\nInstructors: Jesse Gavin\, lead\, assisted by Dave Gavin\, Herb Fick\, and probably others!\nThe tools made will be punches with a wire handle and chisels with a wire handle. We will offer the option to used treadle hammers supplied by the teaching staff. (Find out if you really need one of these by trying them.) Tools for the treadle hammers will be supplied.\nSteel will be 5/8 and 3/4 inch round 4140 for the punches and chisels. Handles will be fabricated from ¼ and or 5/16 round CRS.\nThe goal of the workshop is to produce students comfortable with the process of forging and heat treating tools from tool steel. The secondary goal is to have the students comfortable with the use of treadle hammers. We forge in the morning\, heat treat and install handles after lunch.\nWe’ve accepted that most of the time is spent focusing on understanding the heat treat process. There will be enough stock so we can encourage you to make a couple of serious mistakes and still go home with real tools to use or to offer for the next “iron in the hat”.\nPower grinders are supplied by Duggan\, Gavin\, BtW © and Fick.\nBring your favorite hammers\, tongs suitable for the stock if you have them\, and eye and ear protection. Bring your basic safety gear (leather\, cotton\, gloves\, and safety shoes).\nThe building will be open by 8 am\, introductions and coffee will start at 8:30\, in the shop by 9 AM. We usually finish just before 5 pm.\nHistory:\nLast year we used three different treadle hammers for the eight students. For reference\, probable students are invited to question former students including: George Auel\, Wayne Olson\, Jim Moenck\, Larry Hilton\, or Bob Brown.\nThis class has been going annually for quite a while and has always filled. Credit for that goes to Jesse and Dave.\nTo register for this class: put your name\, phone number\, email and residential address on piece of paper\, fold it up with a check for $85 made out to “Guild of Metalsmiths” and mail to Herb Fick\, who will manage the class.\nHerb Fick\n519 East Eighth Street\nNorthfield MN 55057-2508\n507 663 0569 or 507 649 1611 (cell)\nherb@phyque.com\nAcceptance for this class will be prioritized by postmark.

SUMMARY:Forge Welding 2-Day Class 2017-is FULL!
DESCRIPTION:Instructor: Dave Mariette\nMaximum students: 8\, Minimum: 5\nForge welding. So\, you’ve seen it done. It looked so easy. Why doesn’t it work for me\, you ask?\nDavid will seek to dispel the mythical mysticism that seems to surround this technique\, and give you the tools you need to begin forge welding. Like many things there is no magic bullet. It is a compilation of doing everything right\, not just one thing.\nStarting from the ground up learning to manage heat\, you’ll start with some basic welding\, and as you gain some experience moving in to a few more advanced welding configurations. Some solid basic forging experience would be beneficial.\nSafety Equipment – The usual. Eye and ear protection. No flammable clothing. Leather work boots. Since we are forge welding and there will be more sparks than usual\, students should dress with that in mind. Bring an apron if you have one.\nTools and Equipment: As part of the cost of the class\, students will be provided with their own wire brush and a 1 LB can of EZ Weld.\nLunch arrangements: bring a bag lunch or visit one of the area restaurants.\nTo register for this class\, send a check for $160 made out to “The Guild of Metalsmiths to:\nBryan Carlson\n1814 Pleasant Street\nLauderdale\, MN 55113\nContact Bryan with questions at 651-324-8983.\nAcceptance priority for this class will be determined by postmark.

SUMMARY:Beginning Blacksmithing Level 1D-2 of 2 is FULL!
DESCRIPTION:In an effort to give more new blacksmiths an opportunity to learn how to forge steel\, the Beginning Blacksmith class format has been modified and split into three separate classes. Students will need to sign up for each level separately. It is recommended that first time students begin with level 1\, then level 2\, then project classes before taking more advanced classes offered by the Guild (hammer making\, tongs\, struck tools\, etc\,). This path provides a common background skill set and terminology to improve the effectiveness of advanced classes. Students with prior experience can judge their proficiency and take the appropriate classes. \nBeginner Level 1 (offered Sept/Oct/Nov) is a 2 day class covering the basics of: Safety\, Tools\, Fire Control\, Forging Dynamics\, Tapers (ribbon\, fishtail\, point)\, Twisting\, Riveting\, Shouldering\, Upset\, Cutting\, Splitting\, Punching\nBeginner Level 2 (offered Dec/Jan/Feb) is a 1 day class covering Heat Treat\, Scrolling\, Bending\, Forge weld. Registration will be open December 1.\nBeginner Projects (offered Jan/Feb) is a 1 day class featuring a project such as Forge Tools (rake\, poker\, shovel\, watering can)\, Hooks\, Bottle Opener\, Wall Sconce\, Tongs. Registration will be open December 1.\nCost: (covers everything you need: the facility\, coal and metal)\nLevel 1 (2 day) $120 for members\, $130 non members\nLevel 2 (1 day) $60 members\, $65 non member\nBeginner project (1 day) ) $60 members\, $65 non member\nThe optional printed out workbook/study guide is $15 (available free on line)\nMinors (under 18) can share a forge with a guardian for an additional $10 /day\nLocation:\nThe classes are held at the Minnesota School of Horseshoeing\, 6250 Riverdale Dr NW\, just off Hwy 10 in Anoka near the Anoka Vocational College and in Cleveland\, MN near Mankato.\nWhy take the beginners basic classes:\nThe beginners basic classes are designed to give everyone the same understanding of the basics\, techniques and terminology. The basic classes or proficiency is required before taking any of the many other classes the Guild offers. This enables those classes to concentrate on advanced techniques without having to spend time on basic concepts.\nWhat you need to bring:\nEye\, ear and skin protection. This includes safety glasses\, ear muff or plugs and suitable clothing which includes hard shoes\, cotton or leather. Synthetic and polyester clothing will burn and melt. There will be sparks and brushes against hot metal.\nTools:\nTools are provided but if you have a favorite hammer\, punches\, chisels and tools\, bring them along. A small 1 to 2 pound ball peen hammer would work. We have various hammers for you to try and get a feel for what is comfortable.\nTypical day:\nClasses start at 9 but people usually show up much earlier to get the coffee brewing\, have a donut\, swap stories or show off recent projects. Feel free to bring projects you are working on to show. We break for lunch. You can either bring a brown bag or go out to a local fast food restaurant.\nFor questions\, contact:\nGordon Barr\n11021 27th Ave\nBurnsville\, MN 55337\nagbarr@aol.com\n($120 for members\, $130 non members)

SUMMARY:Beginning Blacksmithing Level 1B-1 of 2 is FULL!
DESCRIPTION:In an effort to give more new blacksmiths an opportunity to learn how to forge steel\, the Beginning Blacksmith class format has been modified and split into three separate classes. Students will need to sign up for each level separately. It is recommended that first time students begin with level 1\, then level 2\, then project classes before taking more advanced classes offered by the Guild (hammer making\, tongs\, struck tools\, etc\,). This path provides a common background skill set and terminology to improve the effectiveness of advanced classes. Students with prior experience can judge their proficiency and take the appropriate classes. \nBeginner Level 1 (offered Sept/Oct/Nov) is a 2 day class covering the basics of: Safety\, Tools\, Fire Control\, Forging Dynamics\, Tapers (ribbon\, fishtail\, point)\, Twisting\, Riveting\, Shouldering\, Upset\, Cutting\, Splitting\, Punching\nBeginner Level 2 (offered Dec/Jan/Feb) is a 1 day class covering Heat Treat\, Scrolling\, Bending\, Forge weld. Registration will be open December 1.\nBeginner Projects (offered Jan/Feb) is a 1 day class featuring a project such as Forge Tools (rake\, poker\, shovel\, watering can)\, Hooks\, Bottle Opener\, Wall Sconce\, Tongs. Registration will be open December 1.\nCost: (covers everything you need: the facility\, coal and metal)\nLevel 1 (2 day) $120 for members\, $130 non members\nLevel 2 (1 day) $60 members\, $65 non member\nBeginner project (1 day) ) $60 members\, $65 non member\nThe optional printed out workbook/study guide is $15 (available free on line)\nMinors (under 18) can share a forge with a guardian for an additional $10 /day\nLocation:\nThe classes are held at the Minnesota School of Horseshoeing\, 6250 Riverdale Dr NW\, just off Hwy 10 in Anoka near the Anoka Vocational College and in Cleveland\, MN near Mankato.\nWhy take the beginners basic classes:\nThe beginners basic classes are designed to give everyone the same understanding of the basics\, techniques and terminology. The basic classes or proficiency is required before taking any of the many other classes the Guild offers. This enables those classes to concentrate on advanced techniques without having to spend time on basic concepts.\nWhat you need to bring:\nEye\, ear and skin protection. This includes safety glasses\, ear muff or plugs and suitable clothing which includes hard shoes\, cotton or leather. Synthetic and polyester clothing will burn and melt. There will be sparks and brushes against hot metal.\nTools:\nTools are provided but if you have a favorite hammer\, punches\, chisels and tools\, bring them along. A small 1 to 2 pound ball peen hammer would work.

SUMMARY:Struck Tools Workshop 2017
DESCRIPTION:This advertisement is a feeler. There are competing demands for the day.  (Mark Aspery joinery class and Armed Forces day demonstrations in Dundas for starters)  The MN School of Horseshoeing is available. Jim Scott may not be available. I (Herb) have been Jim’s apprentice for this class for the past several years and am willing to carry on if Jim cannot make it. This notice does not follow our 3 month class advertising requirements.  (That is an apology.)  If enough interest is forwarded soon\, we will carry on.  Do not send money yet.\nThe day will include:\nPrepare a punch\, a slitting chisel and a drift using approximately 5/8 inch round stock. We will fabricate normal length (6 to 8 inches) hand held tools without handles. We usually have strikers who offer all kinds of help. We will heat treat using oil. Material used will be GM automotive coil spring stock\, presumed to be 5160 alloy. Students should have completed the Beginning blacksmithing course or have suitable background experience.\nYou will need: your pet forging hammer\, a second hammer for striking tools\, hearing and eye protection and proper clothing (Tongs if you have them). A variety of hammers will be available for your trial.\nThis workshop is a valuable opportunity for practical hands-on training in the preparation and restoration of tools.  Blacksmiths need basic comfort with techniques used when restoring and heat treating tools.  We will focus on the use of color and the basic techniques used in heat treating. Let us know if you are short on physical strength and we will accommodate you with smaller stock and/or striking help.\nFor background\, attend the April 12 membership meeting and ask those who have participated in the past Jim Scott classes. They are enthusiastic and often offer to help with the workshops.  Jim has offered this training very successfully for many years.\nTo register for this workshop simply forward your interest and complete contact information to:\nHerb Fick\n519 East Eighth Street                    Questions?\nNorthfield\, MN 55057-2508                Contact Herb     via email at herb@phyque.com\nAcceptance priority is determined by postmark (or e-mail message date).  I’ll bring some rolls; we will offer coffee.  Lunch is brown bag or local lunch counters.  Early registration really helps us plan.

SUMMARY:Handled Struck Tools Class 2016 IS FULL!
DESCRIPTION:Instructor: Jesse Gavin (lead) supported by Dave Gavin\, Herb Fick\, and others\nMinimum 6 students; maximum 8\nThe tools made will be punches with a wire handles and chisels with wire handles. We will use treadle hammers. (Find out if you really need one of these by trying them.) Tools for the treadle hammers will be supplied.\nSteel will be 5/8 and 3/4 inch round 4140 for the punches and chisels. Handles will be fabricated from ¼ and or 5/16 round CRS.\nThe exercise will include forging and basic heat treatment of the tools.  We forge in the morning\, heat treat and install handles after lunch.\nWe’ve accepted that most of the time is spent focusing on understanding the heat treat process.  There will be enough stock so we can encourage you to make a couple of serious mistakes and still go home with real tools to use or offer for the next “iron in the hat”.\nPower grinders are supplied by Duggan\, Gavin\, BtW © and Fick. We still have a couple of belts supplied by our abrasive friends at 3M.\nBring your favorite hammers\, tongs suitable for the stock if you have them\, and eye and ear protection.  Bring your basic safety gear (leather\, cotton\, gloves\, and safety shoes). Last year we used three different treadle hammers for the eight students.\nFor reference\, probable students are invited to question former students including:\nHix\, Marty        Auel\,  George        Olson\, Wayne\nMoenck\, James        Hilton\, Larry        Brown\, Bob\nThis class has been going annually for quite a while and has always filled.  Credit for that goes to Jesse and Dave.\nTo register\, send your name\, address\, email\, and phone numbers on a piece of paper along with a check for $65 written out to Guild of Metalsmiths to:\nHerb Fick\n519 East Eighth Street\nNorthfield MN 55057-2508\nFor questions: 507 663 0569 or 507 649 1611 (cell)     herb@phyque.com\nAcceptance priority for this class is determined by postmark.

SUMMARY:Tongs Class 2016 IS FULL!
DESCRIPTION:Instructors:  Martin Pansch\, Larry Wasmund\, Rick Wessling\, Marty Masters\, other exciting guest instructors to be determined later.\nMaximum students: 8\, Minimum 4\nTongs\, while deceptively simple looking\, contain a lot of considerations in making them. They should fit the work\, fit your hand\, be long enough but not too long\, sturdy enough but not too heavy\, and constructed in a way that lasts despite heavy use. This class will look at these factors and more as we learn to make tongs using the classic 3-shoulder method. Those with less experience will be encouraged to stick with flat bit tongs but the modifications needed for bolt\, pick up\, box jaw\, etc will be demonstrated and can be tried by the more bold. Students should have already completed the beginner class or equivalent. Techniques involved will include half-face blows\, forging to dimension\, drawing\, punching and riveting. We might play a little with striking for each other. The goal is for students to leave with the knowledge needed to make any tongs they need in the future with little more than a hammer\, anvil\, forge and punch.\nTools and Equipment or other items participants are to bring to the class.  Your favorite blacksmithing hammer\, ¼ to 3/8″ round punch if you have one. Flatters\, sledge hammer\, and hot rasp may also be used but don’t go buy them just for the class.\nSafety Equipment – safety glasses & ear plugs are mandatory. Other safety equipment may include: gloves\, leather apron\, cotton clothing\, leather shoes.\nLunch Arrangements: Bring your own or eat at one of the fine local dining establishments.\nTo register for this class\, send your contact info and a check for $40 made out to “Guild of Metalsmiths” to:\nMartin Pansch\n8750 Yale Avenue\nYoung America\, MN 55397\n(612) 599-4762\nblacksmithingyeti@gmail.com\nAcceptance priority determined by postmark.

SUMMARY:Struck Tools Workshop April 2016 IS FULL!
DESCRIPTION:Instructor: Jim Scott\nClass size: 8 max\, 5 minimum\nThe day will include: Preparing a punch\, a slitting chisel and a drift using approximately 5/8 inch stock. We will fabricate normal length (6 to 8 inches) hand held tools without handles. We will be hand forging as individuals. We will heat treat using oil. Material used will be GM automotive coil spring stock\, presumed to be 5160 alloy. Students should have completed the Beginning Blacksmithing course or have suitable background experience.\nYou will need: your pet hammer\, a second hammer for striking tools\, hearing and eye protection and proper clothing (Tongs if you have them). A variety of hammers will be available for trials.\nThis workshop is a valuable opportunity for practical hands-on training in the preparation and restoration of tools.  Blacksmiths need basic comfort with techniques for restoring and heat treating tools.  We will focus on the use of color and the basic techniques used in heat treating. Let us know if you are short on physical strength\, and we will accommodate you with smaller stock and/or striking help.\nFor background\, go to the February Guild meeting on Wednesday\, Feb. 10\, and ask those who have participated in past Jim Scott classes.  They are enthusiastic and often offer to help with the workshops. Jim has offered this training very successfully for many years. Jim offers this in a one day workshop at the Minnesota School of Horseshoeing on April 9 2016.\nThe stock and expertise is supplied by Jim. Arrangements made by Herb Fick.\nTo register for this workshop\, simply wrap your complete contact information in a check for $50 written to The Guild of Metalsmiths and send to:\nHerb Fick\n519 East Eighth Street\nNorthfield\, MN 55057-2508\nQuestions? Contact Herb: herb@phyque.com   507 663 0569   507 649 1611 (cell)\nI’ll bring some rolls\, we will offer coffee\, and lunch is brown bag or local lunch counters.  We ask Jim to travel considerable distance to offer this class. Early registration really helps us plan.\nAcceptance priority is determined by postmark.
