What: We have lots to pick from and something for ALL skill levels from beginner to professional.

Site 2: We are kicking off the CBA Darryl Nelson Bear Head online series with Mark Aspery, John Williams and Victoria Ritter by teaching a hands on workshop of the Darryl Nelson style bear head and the tooling that supports the project. Now is a perfect time to get some great one on one instruction on this fun project.

Site 3:  The focus for the more advanced smiths in our family is working with a popular architectural metal: Silicon Bronze. Celeste Flores will be showing us the in /outs of this material with a project to be announced.  There’s sure to be an opportunity for participants to help bring her project to life. 

 Site 4:   If the above isn’t enough, you can help out Jake Trogdon as he leads a team to build portable stands for the CBA trailer leg vices or Paul Boulay as he finishes up the motor mounts on the Toby Hickman power hammer.
