Dan has been smithing for five years, he built a shop at his home and most days swings a hammer for a few hours. Dan volunteers at the Heritage center in McMinnville, where they have a turn of the century blacksmith shop.

Dan will be teaching you the basics of swinging a hammer as well as taking beginners to new heights as he explores the possibilities of what blacksmithing has to offer. You will gain a working understanding of blacksmith tools and techniques including tapering, flattening, dishing and bending. $75/class

Largest plowing competition with draft animals on the West Coast. 20+ teams of draft horses and mules, Blacksmith, Sawmill, Farm demos, Food, Music, Pioneer kids’ activities, Vendors & More

Anvil will be banding wheels at the event!  Every year we do it and it is so much fun!!!

$8 adults – free for kids under 12

Make your very own cutting board while learning how to use Anvil’s power tools. We will cover using the planer, ripping on the table saw, cross cutting on the miter saw, curved cuts on the bandsaw, doing a decorative edge with the router, and using a sander to finish the project.

This is a great chance to get to know, or brush up on the most powerful tools in the shop. This class is a pre-requisite for open shop access and you get to take home your cutting board. This class is for anyone 12 and older.

Rob is a great teacher that will give you the freedom to learn basic skills or go on to the next level in blacksmithing.  If you have already had a basic class – bring your ideas of what you would like to try next, and Rob will work with you to make it happen – at least as much as is possible.
