Clay and Steel’s modified Ford Ranger allows our smithy to take to the road. We have attended Open Sauce, Maker Faire (third time in 2025!), and many on-site Gift Shows and open-air Markets. We can swing hammers, show smithing processes, speak about our jobs/lives, and forge gifts for team members. We also are set up to teach limited courses on-site, safely, with insurance, and all according to any fire safety practices you may have. Contact us for more…
