I am attending the following class next week and they tell me they have
one opening left. The Tunnel Mill school is located about 15 miles
south of Rochester, MN. If you don't know who Tom Latane' is: as far as
I am concerned, he is the best traditional craftsman blacksmith in the
USA, at least.

Carol or John @ 507-289-4189 or 507-289-5246
Tunnel Mill will be offering a class taught by Tom Latane’ on October
12, 13, & 14th, 2006. The class; Forging Decorative Embellishments.
With inspiration taken from traditional Northern European cemetery and
wayside crosses, students will chase patterns in flat stock, split bars
into multiple scrolls and forge weld small pieces together to form
multiple scrolls.
The class will forge a number of pagan and Christian elements
traditionally used to ornament crosses and other work. These include
dangling leaves, scrolled finials and dragon, angel and bird forms.
This will be a great opportunity to learn some of Tom’s traditional
techniques.
Some camping accommodations are available at the mill, close by motels
and a meal plan.
