DESCRIPTION:Aggressive Metalworks does it again!\n\nMike in his usual and
  delightful way demonstrated and explained step by step how to forge a b
 lacksmith hammer. As in every demo Mike has done\, and there have been m
 any over the years\, Mike's knowledge and common sense approach to makin
 g any object\, made this demo understandable and a treat to watch. He is
 \, as has been said before\, a born teacher. His apprentice and able hel
 per\, aka\, fiance Ashley\, did a terrific job as striker and tongs hand
 ler.. Mike's mother also made a critical appearance as once again delive
 red a couple of large bowls of absolutely delicious cookies\, of which I
  had at least three!This meeting had another large turnout\, to wit\, 37
  people with some new prospective members. Additionally\, Jim Moran conf
 irmed that our area has been selected for the 2020 ABANA conference\, wh
 ich will be in the Saratoga area. Help in needed at all venues. Contact 
 Jim (439-5439) for details or to sign up. Jim also discussed setting up 
 actual hands on workshops for members the weekend before the usual meeti
 ng at Pat's Forge to help the honing or learning of new skills. Contact 
 Jim for details. The next meeting will be at Pat's forge on February 26 
 when I will have a short demo (due to the depth of my skills/knowledge!)
  on making woodworking tools i.e.\, gouges and chisels out of garage doo
 r spring steel. .
