Photos from the forge. We’ve been lucky enough t Photos from the forge. We’ve been lucky enough to have Graham van Houten here twice already to teach blacksmithing classes. Last fall he taught a trial course where students made a 3-piece camping cook set, and this past spring he taught an Introduction to Blacksmithing; Forging Fire Tools and Hooks. Two weekends from now he’ll be back at it, teaching two different one-day courses on the weekend of Oct 14/15. On Saturday he will be teaching the Introduction to Blacksmithing; Forging Fire Tools and Hooks course and on Sunday he will be teaching an Introduction to Tool Steel; Forging Bushcraft Tools, which is a new course of his. Graham is also an artist on this weekend’s Perth Autumn Studio Tour and will be showing his wares at our place (Stop 4). He will be here along with 5 other guest artists. Come say hello! @smallchangerain @perthstudiotour #blacksmithing #forged #blacksmithingcourse #firetools #photosfromtheforge #learnaskill #bushcraft

A project that finally happened! I got to spend ma A project that finally happened! I got to spend many hours with my dad who has learned car mechanics over his lifetime of owning used vehicles and having an inquisitive and mechanical mind, and a do-it-yourself mentality. I rarely get to spend time like this with him and it was treasured. He is an amazing teacher and I believe he could solve any problem thrown at him, mechanical or otherwise. What we did: Front struts Back brake rotors Back brake pads Front, left brake caliper Power steering line But mostly what we did was figure out the easiest ways to remove rusty bolts from dozens of hard to get to places. Seeing the original parts from 2009 contrasted with the new parts amazed me! It also made me trust the vehicle more, knowing how intricate and well engineered these parts really are. After the new power steering line was drained, brake and power steering fluids topped up and battery charged we turned over the engine for the first time since the spring. Blue smoke started billowing from the hood. The alternator had seized and the serpentine belt snapped. Luckily, we just needed to grease up the alternator with old motor oil, then work it back and forth to unseize it and get it to turn a full rotation. After putting a new serpentine belt on the car is now back on the road. It feels so good to have gained this knowledge and experience and it’s got me thinking about hosting an intro to car mechanics course. I’d take it! Anyone else? #carmechanics #thanksdad #diy #oldandnew
