Fiske Forge

Thank you Rockpile Museum for inviting me to demonstrate. It was an excellent week. Lots of excellent questions from and interactions with the Pathfinders and Camporee attendees.

I hope we can do it again soon.

Another successful day at the Interpretive Village. The wind was a challenge with the forge but the Hammer is nearly done and the axe will be finished tomorrow.

Tentative schedule for Thursday:
--AM: Finish Hammer Head and Pack Axe
--PM: Spoon and/or Fire Poaker

Interpretive Village schedule for Wednesday - please visit with Joseph and Venessa as they set up the teepee and talk with visitors about Native American culture. Learn about Homestead living, check out the art of blacksmithing, visit the museum and enjoy!
