Join Uncle Jon’s forge and open up your imagination.  In this intermediate class I will share my approach to creating caricatures with their own personality.

By repurposing old chisels and punches into an eye punch, a fuller, and a butcher  we will make the tools I like to use in this process.  I will show you my approach to bring iron to life.

What to wear/safety equipment :

-Cotton pants and long sleeved shirt (synthetics are potentially flammable).

-Leather or canvas shoes/boots. (NO open toed sandals/shoes-tennis shoes are not recommended for safety). Make sure your pants fit over the tops of your boots so nothing hot can fall in.

-Safety glasses, ear plugs, and a dust mask. Long hair must be tied back.

-Leather gloves to protect your hands and a notebook to take notes.

-Bring a water bottle to stay hydrated, and snacks if you want.

PLEASE PLAN TO ARRIVE 30 MINUTES BEFORE CLASS IS SCHEDULED SO EVERYONE CAN GET SET UP.
