About

This workshop is suitable for all former Waterside students (12+) who have completed Module 1 - Beginners.
  • Sunday 8:30am-4:30pm, Apr 24th 2022

The workshop is suitable for all former Waterside students who have completed Module 1.

Students will learn how to forge small bowls with lids, by using the 'top tool & striking' technique and a fly-press. Knobs on lids will be formed through 'upsetting' and 'hot-riveting' before internal surfaces are grit blasted and a final glass enamel finish is applied. At the end of the workshop, students will have gained all necessary skills to incorporate this wonderful technique into their forging practice and take home an awesome lidded bowl!

This class will be taught by Ben Beames.

Minimum age for students is 15.
