On June 13, I have invited the blacksmith clubs from Texas and Oklahoma to be a part of an all day demonstration. I will be showing how I make the various textures that are used in my art work. I will also be demonstrating the use of power hammers and dies. This is really an open invitation to anyone interested in learning some of the techniques to be a part of this event. If you are interested, please contact me and I can provide directions. My shop is in Alvord Texas, 50 miles north of Ft. Worth, 30 miles west of Denton.

I am new to this site... I have been a full time blacksmith artist. Started out in a fabrication shop, migrated to building fences, then went to work (for free to learn) from a real blacksmith pro. He taught me a lot, then I struck out on my own.
