The evening was super fun, you don't get to do a little blacksmithing you get to do ALL of it. Our instructor Joe was funny and engaging. He would help you fix your piece with verbal thoughts or physically help you achieve the look you wanted for your piece. It is a bit tiring on whichever hand you hammer with, and of course very hot! Be prepared to work hard, but also have a few laughs and spend time with your significant other.
