Blacksmithing Day One: Getting the fires going

Today we learned about the history and mission of the Harriton House and then got right to work getting the fires going and trying our hands at making hooks.  All of the students jumped right in.  On Monday, we will learn a few new techniques.  Students have already started thinking about individual projects they might want to complete by the end of next week.
