Both have been interested for a while but I couldn't find anything for ages, and apparently this mob have a website but I could never find it?! o_O I guess my search-fu wasn't particularly strong on the day I was looking (and in fairness I did only look either on the one day or very infrequently, as I feel like there's way too much stuff on now).
What kind of things are blacksmiths needed for these days? I feel so ignorant right now x_x
Cirque du Soleil is pricey but worth it.
Blacksmiths do a lot of work for crafting things for fences and have a lot of relational work for people who do welding. I think a lot of times blacksmiths end up also doing welding because they are very closely related!
For example - blacksmiths can make custom wrought iron fence posts for a home or business. They can also make stair handrails and things of that nature. We've seen a few different blacksmith shops when we've been to autumn fairs and they really do make some cool stuff! This one guy who was about 19 or so said he started doing it and his business took off because not a lot of people were doing it and now he's making a pretty substantial amount of money!
Oh nice! I'll try to get on to that next year depending on if the boys are still interested. Thanks ^_^
