Hello,

Thank you for your inquiry about our beginner classes in Blacksmithing taught by Craig Kaviar. Class sessions will be held at the Forge behind the Kaviar Forge & Gallery on Frankfort Avenue. The cost of the class is $400 which includes all materials. Classes will be held for five consecutive Saturdays starting January 24th through February 21, 2009 from

Items to bring with you

* Hearing protection is strongly recommended (we provide ear plugs but you are welcome to bring your own!)

* Leather boots.

* Gloves. Leather work gloves are very useful in handling steel. I prefer cotton hot mill gloves or Kevlar gloves.

* An old towel or rag. If you sweat, glow or generally perspire, this is a nice thing to have.

We remind you that the forge gets very dirty and hot; be sure to wear clothing suited for this type of working atmosphere.

 

 

 

 

 

 

General Safety Form

Blacksmithing is a dangerous activity. Persons participating in blacksmith classes, workshops or other, or are present in a blacksmith shop or on the premises where blacksmithing is taking place in the course of events, face many dangers. Among the dangers are handling metal at extremely high temperatures (sometimes in excess of 2000 degrees F), working around and using hammers, tools, anvils, treadle hammers or other powered hammers, grinders, welders, metal saws and sharp pieces of metal, etc. There are often fumes from the fire present. This is an example only and does not intend to list all dangers that a person may face while on the premises where metal work is being conducted. In order for Craig Kaviar Inc. to present programs involving blacksmithing, it must be able to do so functionally. The dangers associated with blacksmithing are something for which the undersigned participant is to the risk of as a condition of participation in the activities or being on the premises where such activities are in place.
