[Sca-cooks] RE: Viking Clay Mold Casting classes

[JAMES REVELLS]

    Thanks, Stefan, I understand about time at Pennsic, but it is not a
quick subject to teach in a hands on way.  The best article I have seen (in
fact where I learned most of what I know) is online at:
http://members.chello.se/vikingbronze/
   No mater what happens I will be bringing examples of stuff I am working
on now.  I will also be bringing a forge that is set up for traveling, but
uses the traditional style Norse hole-in-the-dirt forge, but is in a box so
I don't have to dig holes at events (thanks to Phlip for showing me pictures
of the Wolves of Woton forge set up).  I plan to do a set of notes on the
forge & my version of the process this summer.  If I am confident in the
material I will let you publish it in the foliothig a ma jig.
    Pax,
Olaf
