A hands-on and fun workshop on how to forge your own bottle opener from mild steel in our well kitted out studio. We are located in the heart of Melbourne... and... we are all about forging hot steel!
You will learn how to use a coke-fired forge, anvil, hammer & tongs and... best of all... you get to wear one of our funky leather aprons!
Don't worry if you've never tried blacksmithing before, our experienced teacher will guide you every step of the way and you'll be safely instructed on creating a truly unique bottle opener which will be yours to keep. Feel free to bring a bottle of beer to celebrate your achievement at the end of the class and put your opener to the test!
Bring a curious mind and a willingness to learn and we will take care of the rest.
If after your session, you find yourself wanting to extend your skills, you may want to explore our
other workshops we have on offer. We offer classes in steel sculpture and jewellery, enamelling, knifemaking and for those wanting to get a more in depth understanding of the art of blacksmithing, we also offer multi-day courses.
This workshop is suitable for everyone, whether you're looking for a fun activity to do with your kids (17 years old and above), a unique date night idea or a team-building activity. Our forge is available for private bookings for up to ten persons every Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. Simply contact us to arrange a suitable time and day for your visit.

Steve offers a rare mix of passion, effervescent energy and a love of people, resulting in memorably experiences where everyone feels welcome...
And then... there is Harry, the resident forge hound with an equally sunny disposition who will greet you at the door with a big smile and wet nose!
Steve discovered the colourful world of blacksmithing in Belgium, during a midlife sabbatical. Upon return, with two big anvils and a legvice under his belt, he set up a forge in Footscray's picturesque Water's Edge Arts Precinct.
In 2013, he initiated Australia's first Blacksmiths Festival, now being held biannually on the banks of the Maribyrnong River and run by a team of volunteers.
Steve has a degree in Earth Sciences, studied blacksmithing at the Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp, obtained a Certificate IV in Training and Assessment and is currently completing a Certificate in Industrial Blacksmithing at TAFENSW.
Apart from teaching, he also offers a well equipped space for members to come together and forge.
