2010 Courses in Metalsmithing

I have been (already!) getting requests for the 2010 Course Dates. A general description of the courses and the facilities can be found at Training from the Wareham Forge.
The following are tentative at this point. They do fit the normal pattern of dates from past years:

INTRODUCTION TO BLACKSMITHING

April 30 - May 2

June 18 - 20

July 16 - 18

September 17 - 19

October 15 - 17

One change is that I have fixed specific dates from some of the specialist programs:

June 4 & 5 : Introduction to SMELTING IRON

July 24 & 25 : Basic BLADESMITHING

October 23 - 24 : Introduction to LAYERED STEELS

November 27 & 28 : Basics of METAL CASTING


The course fees from 2009 remain unchanged.
Note however that for the courses to the end of June, only GST is applied. Because of the new harmonized tax taking effect on July 1, 2010, the combined 13% is likely to apply after that date.

Book early! A deposit of $100 holds your space. Payments can be via mailed cheque, Paypal, or major credit card (via phone).

hope to see you this year.
