Ready to set up a backyard blacksmith shop? Purchasing a forge can be a daunting prospect, but building your own is a snap in this course.

You’ll leave with a propane or natural gas- powered forge that fits in the trunk of your car, the skills to get started using it, and the knowledge to troubleshoot any challenges along the way. You and your forge will be capable of producing knife blades, ornamental pieces and even forge-welding. Get ready to hang your shingle as the neighborhood blacksmith!
