Due to the Covid-19 Pandemic our event planning has been cancelled for this year, we are looking at ways to host forge-ins online, please see our Facebook and Instagram pages for more current details.
“Bringsty Forge's nearly almost annual 8th Forge-in! (est. 2011)
Our forge-in 'fun' competition this year will be announced closer to the day as necessity is the mother of invention.
The idea is to make a piece of forged work that is inspired by the title in a few hours with everyone else getting in the way and using just the piece of kit that you need…should be no problem!
We will have at least 6 fires going during the day and some extra anvils so they’ll be plenty of opportunity to have a go! They’ll also be loads of time to catch up with old friends and even make some new ones. Just bring some of your favourite hand tools.
If you are new to Blacksmithing and you've never been to a forge-in its a great chance to get involved and to meet up with and have a go with those of us who've been getting it wrong for a bit longer!!
Playtime starts around 9am and finishes when everyone has gone home to bed.
Bring some food to share for lunch and something to put on the BBQ in the evening. Henry will be not be available as your chef for the evening – he’ll be in Hawaii! So Tony is charcoaling stuff this year.
Don't forget to bring the liquid refreshment of your choice.
We will supply tea coffee all day plus buns and salad for the BBQ.
Please ignore the website address on the map, it no longer works.
It would be helpful to know how many are coming so please email or ring to let us know that you’re coming.
