BLACKSMITHING Demo: Demonstrators: Michael Sobrado and John Krueger March 20 and 21 at the Triangle L Guest Ranch In Oracle: There are rooms to rent, and camping is available. Registration 9:00 am. Doors open at 8:00 Michael Sobrado:( Saturday) has been a very active and enthusiastic AABA member and blacksmith in the community and will be sharing techniques for making tooling to assist in faster production of finished metal designs. He will demonstrate how to make bells on Saturday, and will have plenty of materials on hand for anyone interested in making one afterwards. This is going to be a hands on demo for those who want to hammer. John Krueger:(Sunday) is going to be teaching the correct ways to get the most out of your oxyacetylene tanks. He will be showing how to cut with precision and hold your hands and elbows to actually feel the torch and become more efficient with cutting and burning. Plus he is going to cover welding with oxyacetylene, and will share how to weld 16 gauge metal for a air tight seam to make 2 sided items to blow up. Folks, I want to tell you this is going to be a fun get together…Not only is Saturday going to be hands on, but so is Sunday. You are going to get your chance to not only see the demos each day, but you will get to immediately have a chance to practice what you have seen. On each day, both Michael and John are going to take the time afterwards to let you try a hand at what you have seen. There will be plenty of stations to work at. This is one of those weekends you want to stay and play for both days. On Sunday, after we watch and learn from John, and then spend some time trying out the techniques ourselves, we are going on a field trip to an artist show just up the road, where Ken Webb is showing his work, and the chance to see other metal artists and different medias. Lunch is on your own, there are restaurants nearby. Saturday evening BBQ, (bring your own meats) Sunday breakfast: a headcount will be taken on Saturday of who will be staying, and for $10.00, Sharon, the owner of Triangle L will treat us to breakfast. Tailgating, Iron in the Hat, and Show and Tell, BRING YOUR STUFF!!! Bring chairs to sit on Bring your hammers
