Come take a tour of my one car garage blacksmith shop! I started taking blacksmithing classes 4 years ago because I wanted to learn to make woodworking tools. Last summer, not knowing I'd soon be moving across the country, I built my dream blacksmithing shop by renovating a broken down building on our Seattle property. When we moved, our new property in TN didn't have shop space available, so I decided to set my blacksmithing equipment, my forge, anvil, vises, grinders, welding equipment, and hydraulic press in one bay of our garage. Setting up that space, I realized a one-car garage is a perfect size for a small smithy. Even with the addition of new tools like a drill press and bandsaw, my next purchase goals, I'll have plenty of space to do what I want to do. One thing that's very important in any shop, but especially blacksmith shops is to set it up for efficiency of movement. That's where my friend Adam from Maker Table came into the equation. He's worked in butcher shops and designed shops and assembly lines and knows all about efficiency. Adam showed me how to set up a blacksmith shop so I could work efficiently. He showed me where to put my tools, how to orient my anvil and vises, and not only helped me move all my equipment, but also helped me fabricate a welding table he designs and manufactures for my workspace. He Your steel is only hot for so long, so you need to be able to move quickly and efficiently from your forge to your anvil to your vises. You need all your tools stored in sight so you can quickly grab whatever tool you need next. This tiny one car garage blacksmith shop is everything I need for this season! Stay tuned for videos on blacksmithing for beginners, knifemaking, making damascus steel, mig welding, basic fabrication, making woodworking tools and a whole lot more!

I'm Anne of All Trades. In NASHVILLE, I have a woodworking, blacksmithing and fabrication shop, a selection of furry friends, and an organic farm. Whether you've got the knowledge, tools, time or space to do the things you've always wanted to do, everything is "figureoutable." I became "Anne of All Trades" out of necessity. With no background in farming or making things, I wanted to learn to raise my own food, fix things when they break, and build the things I need. 8 years ago I got my first pet, planted my first seed and picked up my first tool.
