I discovered blacksmithing a little later in life and trained at the National School of Blacksmithing in Hereford. Before this, blacksmithing and metalwork was a hobby. I’m now a maker of things, one-of-a-kind builds and love crazy ideas.
Over the last few years I’ve been lucky enough to work on a lot of amazing projects including castles, film props, sculptures, and one off unique art pieces.
If it needs to be historically accurate or just a repair to your favourite old thing, I’m more than happy to help,
"Really useful course. Richard explains in simple terms and shows you every aspect. From stick welding, MIG and SIP. Then he throws you into it, which isn't as easy as he makes it look. He explained what I did wrong and by the end I was welding (MIG) reasonable confidently. Thanks."
"Rich was a pleasant and respectful tutor who kindly guided us through the process. Besides some hiccups with the forge itself (which were quickly resolved in the timeframe), my Dad and I had a great time and walked away with two personally made axes."
"I bought this course for my husband for his birthday and he had a great time! Great tutor, good project and he was really pleased with what he made. "
"Very informative. Richard was extremely knowledgeable and patient with my attempts . Highly recommended if you want an introduction to welding "
