. . . since there seemed to be quite an interest last year when I posted
info about this, I repost now.
I have no association with either RFD, the school, or Mr. Rogers. So I am
not hustling.
I hope it is not taboo to list commercial shows on this group.

Forge & Anvil, Alan Rogers, (a TV show from U of Georgia) was repeated again
on the RFD channel on DirectTV.
They claimed there are 5 show segments;
. . . horseshoeing
. . . furniture making
. . . architectural details
. . . art work
. . . weapons making

Any chance of a web site? I'd like to review the project tapes before
buying.

SF!

The last show I saw about 'Forge and Anvil' was on RFD TV's show, 'Going to
Branson'
Last year they had 2 or 3 shows on called 'Forge and Anvil'

Gday all,

I've watched the entire series of the show, but not the project video
yet.

I liked the show, it was quite interesting and entertaining, but I
felt that it was very lacking in details on the projects, they jump
steps and leave a lot of necessary details out. If your a beginner,
you will find it quite hard to complete some of them from the tv
series.
I guess thats why they made the project videos.

Thats said, I did learn a lot from watching them. I didn't buy them,
but borrowed them from the local college.
I also got good info from the book, also borrowed. I'd say they are
well worth watching.

I plan to get the project videos next, but it will be a week or two
before I do. So if you want an opinion on them, it will have to
wait. :)

Regards
Rusty_iron
Brisbane, Oz.
