No experience nec. In this class, the student will learn "Dry Forge Welding" as developed by Steve Rollert and Owen Wood.

The steels most commonly used will be discussed as well as the pros and cons of each. Three heat-treating techniques will be discussed and at least one demonstrated. The student will see Steve assemble and forge weld a billet "Dry", then the student will make and weld "Dry" a billet to be taken home. If time permits, the student can forge to shape a blade or hardware out of the steel they make. The billets we will be making will be 1.5 inches wide by 4 inches long by 20 layers thick for the first weld of the billets.
