McLellan Blacksmithing

I’ve had kids as young as 6 attend with a parent. But, to get anywhere they need to be able to swing a hammer consistently.

I've had classes on making knives and axes. I've made arrow heads...but we can't do the bow or the arrow.

Most are $100.00 for the day.

I do classes one Saturday a month. But if you really want to learn the trade, there's a school in Charleston, SC that has a great program. American College of the Building Arts. https://acba.edu There are other schools that do week long programs...generally craft schools. ACBA is a real school and will give you the most complete program.

Mostly architectural metalwork...gates, railings, firescreens, etc. But we do a lot of oddball stuff too. Lighting, kitchen hoods, knives, axes, surgical instruments, tractor parts, blacksmith tools, whatever. I also do classes one Saturday a month Sept. thru April. I haven't had time for an apprentice...but maybe in the futrure.
