Peat Oberon's School of Blacksmithing

Absolutely fantastic experience through out the 3days we spent with Peat and his team. Didn't think we would achieve all tasks but excellent time management and support we have created some fantastic pieces of work. Thanks Peat.

I went on Peat's tools course which was held over three days, friday to sunday 9 till 4.30. We made a range of tools, some of which were used to make parts of the others i.e. the punch was used to make the rivet hole in the tongs. There was a lot of heating up and working metal involved and at times it was quite strenuous but all of the eight members of the course completed the tasks set. Peat himself is a fount of information and has a range of skills second to none. Everyone enjoyed the course and went away with a bag of tools they had made. I had a brilliant time.

Excellent course with an expert craftsman

Today I have completed day two of Peat’s beginners course, I don’t need to wait until the conclusion of the final day tomorrow to tell you that it is fantastic. Not only is Peat extremely knowledgable from his decades of experience, but he is also one of those individuals that can make learning tremendous fun. If you have the slightest interest in finding out something about this fascinating subject, or even if you don’t, book the course, it’s brilliant. Hands on from the get go and very rewarding.
