Instructor: Lashen Orendorff
Students will learn the basics of forging layout tools; our project for this workshop will be the blacksmith compass. Students will be guided through skill-building exercises and will forge the components of the compass by hand at the anvil. We will cover tapers, rivets, mass isolation and hardening and tempering of tool steel. As well as some of the many applications of the compass scribe.
