Several times a year B.I.S.S. or Blacksmiths In Sutter's Service
hold an event at Mike Carson's shop in Woodland, CA that we like to call Anvilpalooza. Mike Carson is the owner of Hippocampus
Forge. Most of us are demonstrators and interpreters, and we invite blacksmiths of all skill levels to participate, learn and have fun. This is just
one way we strive to preserve the blacksmith's craft.
At Anvilpalooza we all have two things in common....FIRE and IRON!
These events give us the chance to swap ideas and learn new techniques
without interuptions by the general public.
In other words, by blacksmiths for blacksmiths.
