This years Friday class will be a 2.5lb straight peen hammer. This is a type of hammer preferred by many for certain forging tasks, where it is advantages for the peen to be parallel to the handle. To complete this project you will be working in pairs with the other person striking. Each individual will leave with a finished hammer. This class will cover many different aspects of forging, including working with a striker and proper striking form, how to punch and drift an eye in a tool, grinding, heat treating, handling, and other steps and techniques.
It is beneficial that students have prior forging experience for this class. And it is essential that students are physically fit and capable of swinging a sledgehammer for an extended amount of time.
