The Main Event

Looking for the perfect gift for someone who loves getting hands-on? How about giving them the chance to create something truly unique with the Coat Hook Rack Blacksmith Experience! This one-day workshop is ideal for anyone with a love for craftsmanship or a passion for making things with their own hands. 

During this unforgettable day, participants will have the opportunity to forge their very own coat hook rack complete with three beautifully crafted leaf hooks. They’ll learn essential blacksmithing techniques like forging, texturing, and free-forming the hooks, as well as creating the back plate that holds it all together. And, with a maximum of only 6 people per course, the experience guarantees personal attention from the expert blacksmith throughout the day.

From start to finish, the experience is hands-on and packed with fun. After a welcome chat and brew, everyone will enjoy a workshop tour, followed by a thorough safety talk and a full PPE kit. Then, it’s time to get stuck in with some forging using the gas forge, anvil, and hand tools, as well as working with the 30-ton hydraulic press to form the leaves. You'll even witness a power hammer demonstration, showcasing how one of the pre-made pieces is forged!

Throughout the day, you’ll receive expert guidance, allowing your creativity to shine as you create a truly unique, lasting piece. And don’t worry, it’s not all hard work – a hearty stew made from root vegetables, chickpeas, and spices will fuel your forging efforts.

Perfect for anyone who enjoys learning new skills, making things with their hands, or just looking for a fun day out, this experience is a gift that will create memories – and a stylish coat hook rack – for years to come. Grab your spot now and get ready to forge something fantastic!
