Ex PRESS ive Metals

Ex PRESS ive Metals Specializing in Blacksmithing Classes, Custom Forged Metals and Sculpture near Berkeley Springs, WV. Now a Level 2, ABANA certified instructor.

Artist in Forged Metals. I started hitting hot metal over 45 years ago. In 1998 I wrote, "A Blacksmithing Primer" which has become a very successful book and was also made into a professional 6 hour DVD set. Besides teaching and demonstrating hot metal work for schools and blacksmithing groups I am also working in my own studio with a 60 ton hydraulic forging press showing how hot metal works like

clay. My second book, "Hydraulic Forging Press for the Blacksmith" was released in August of 2014. Currently I have two more books in the works. If you would like to see my studio/school and more about my background check out this YouTube video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=91IAc6wGWMo&t=2s
