SUMMARY:Handled Struck Tools 2015
DESCRIPTION:Instructors: (Lead) Jesse Gavin\, supported by Dave Gavin\, Herb Fick\, and others \nThe tools made will be punches with a wire handle and chisels with a wire handle.  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.
