The Auction will be April 27 & 28, 2018 and is a fundraiser for Anvil Academy, teaching heritage craft in Newberg, Oregon. The only Auction of it’s kind west of the Mississippi.
We’ve done it for 2 years and we’ve learned a lot and we’ve had a lot of fun! Nothing quite like consigning 1800 lots in 2 days and then selling it all in 2 days. This is an all consignment auction – so bring good stuff – take home good stuff! So much fun!!!
Dennis Turmon and Romey Bromwich will be the auctioneers again, some of the finest – they make buying and selling so easy! And rumor on the street is that Dennis will be retiring, so you really don’t want to miss this one!

Do you have a project that you want to make or can’t finish because you don’t have the right tools? We’re here for you! We have woodshop and blacksmith tools and the experience to help you make your vision a reality. We can only work with 3 different projects per evening so you can get the help you need and it’s only $25/hour. Now that’s a deal!
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.

A minimum of a beginners blacksmithing workshop is required.
