All Levels* $155-$205 Materials and Studio Fees Combining blacksmithing and jewelry-making, this workshop offers an opportunity for beginning and advanced participants to develop their skills as they forge and craft a stunning Damascus ring with a silver liner. You will begin by forging a piece of Damascus steel, a particularly beautiful and ornamental steel filled with folds and distinctive patterns. Making Damascus is hard work, and the class will work together to produce the material for everyone's individual projects. You will then shape that steel into a ring blank to be lined with silver. Next, using a combination of hand and power tools, you will refine the ring to reveal the damascus pattern and the finished ring. *This workshop requires the use of sledgehammers and hand hammers for the first three days; thus, some physical stamina is necessary to complete the project. *Materials and studio fees are charged to students based on studio usage and materials Touchstone is providing at the request of the instructor. Additionally, some instructors may also require that you bring certain materials and tools with you, in which case a list will be provided. Final cost of these fees will be posted at least two weeks ahead of the workshop to be paid in full prior to check-in.
