Intermediate Welding: Introduction to TIG welding (10/16/2026)

Fri, 16 Oct 2026 22:30:00 GMT

TIG welding is most commonly used to weld thin sections of stainless steel and non-ferrous metals such as aluminum, magnesium, and copper alloys. The process grants the operator greater control over the weld than competing processes such as MIG welding, allowing for stronger, higher quality welds. Students will have the opportunity to learn the basic techniques of the TIG process and practice with feedback from an expert. It is recommended to take the basic Intro to welding (MIG) class before this TIG class.

Intermediate Blacksmithing: Forge a Railroad Spike Knife (11/07/2026)

Sat, 07 Nov 2026 19:00:00 GMT

Learn how to forge a knife out of a railroad spike!

This is the perfect class to learn one of the basics of knives-making: balancing durability and hardness of the metal to make the perfect blade.

Students will utilize a high carbon railroad spike and learn methods that induce carbon into the metal while also learning how to temper in a process called normalization. The metal will then posses both features of a durable and hard metal that is ideal for knives.

As far as knives are concerned, the harder the steel, the better the edge, however, the harder edge makes for a brittle knife. A balance is needed between the soft flexible metal and the hard brittle metal to achieve a knife that will hold an edge without breaking. In this class more techniques for blade smithing will be covered, including various heat treatments, tapering, and tempering methods used to maximize strength with durability.

Prerequisites: We recommend you complete a beginner blacksmithing class such as Forging Nails prior to taking this class, or having previous experience.
