Blacksmith course advanced training course
00749509
    Flames, heat, chinking anvils and the smell of coal ... Using brawn to deform the glowing material with hammer blows! Everyone imagines the work of a blacksmith that way and that's exactly how it is today. One of the oldest handicrafts is forging and so blacksmiths could previously be found in almost every village and on every continent. Today the profession is gradually dying out and the practice of this classic craft is becoming increasingly rare.   As part of this forging course, you will learn various workflow and basic techniques. This includes, for example, the detection of correct temper colors, guiding the hammer and the correct handling of the forging tools. With an experienced and trained blacksmith, you will develop a feeling for the steel and get to know various working and design techniques.   Different workpieces such as bottle openers, grill forks, simple knives and much more can be forged. There are no limits to creativity here. No special previous knowledge is required for this course, but a good physical condition is recommended.   Protective gloves, safety glasses, ear protection and aprons are provided, but you are also welcome to bring your own.

Blacksmithing course forging an ax/hatchet
00749510
    Flames, heat, clanging anvils and the smell of coal... Use just your muscles to deform the glowing material with hammer blows! This is how everyone imagines the work of a blacksmith and that is exactly how it is today. One of the oldest crafts is blacksmithing and blacksmiths used to be found in almost every village and on every continent. Today the profession is gradually dying out and the practice of this classic craft is becoming increasingly rare.   As part of this blacksmithing course, you will gain insights into the basic techniques of forging. This includes, for example, recognizing the correct glow colors and the correct hammer guidance. However, the focus of this course is clearly on forging a small hatchet. The shape of the head can be chosen freely and individually and is only predetermined by the eye. Under the skilled hands of a trained and experienced blacksmith, you will develop a feel for the steel, forge the ax head from tool steel and then harden the finished axe. Sanded and set, you can then work with it right at home.   No special previous knowledge is necessary for this course, but good physical fitness is recommended.   Protective gloves, safety glasses, hearing protection and apron are provided, but you are welcome to bring your own.

Competition Grave Marker (SE) - 01 November 2025
00941600.20251101
date: 01.11.2025
    Background   Traditionally, grave crosses or tombstones made by local blacksmiths have played a crucial role in commemoration and mourning in many parts of the world.   These tombstones provide a locally made, sustainable and meaningful way to honour loved ones who have passed away. The tradition of having a tombstone made by a blacksmith was instrumental in creating a strong cultural identity within communities. These tombstones created by local blacksmiths not only reflect the region's craft traditions, but also continually refine artisan techniques and aesthetics. Today, the development of new interpretations of regional traditions is also increasing.   A local blacksmith making a tombstone for a deceased person offers a unique opportunity to preserve that person's memory with a highly personal tombstone. This tombstone highlights the personality of the deceased as well as their connection to family, region or faith. In this situation, the blacksmith acts not only as a skilled craftsman, but also as an artist. Through close collaboration and dialogue, he interprets the wishes of the mourner or the deceased.   These traditions have not only been an essential part of building a strong cultural identity and supporting the local economy. They have also been part of a small-scale local manufacturing system that is in many ways more environmentally friendly than large-scale industrial production and global transportation of raw materials and finished products.   In our rapidly changing society, cemeteries also reflect broader societal changes. In recent decades, global industry has pushed blacksmiths out of this market, leading to the disappearance of regional cultures, customs and traditions. At the same time, digital memorials and online tributes are becoming more common, complementing physical gravestones.   Given these challenges, there is a growing need for new rituals or the revival of old ones. We believe that traditional blacksmithing can develop innovative concepts that offer new approaches to contemporary societal needs.   Competition We hope that the Gravemarker - forging future memories competition will be a contribution that will serve as an inspiration for everyone.   Deadline: 1 November 2025 Concept development: 8-10 concepts will be developed in collaboration with us. Budget: Each participant will receive a budget for production costs or rental costs for workspace. Support: Participants will have mentors and advisors available to refine their concepts and approaches. The result will be documented and exhibited.

Farewell to Johannes Angele
00941800.0002
    Our senior boss Johannes Angele passed away on August 22nd after a short, serious illness at the age of 71.   After completing his mechanical engineering studies and various positions abroad, my uncle Johannes took over his parents' company in 1988.   He expanded it continuously and with a sense of proportion - and "on the side" he was active as a local and district councilor, was involved in various honorary positions, founded a publishing house and also wrote various books himself with references to his Upper Swabian homeland.   He never had an eight-hour day - and we often wondered how he managed with so little sleep. After a harmonious transition phase, he placed "his" company entirely in my hands 2 years ago.   I am grateful to continue to run the company in his spirit.   Niklas Wespel

    We started our first experiments with OSCommerce over 20 years ago - this is what our first webshop looked like back then...   The last version has been running for almost 8 years now. At the beginning of the year we decided to completely redesign our webshop. We did a lot of things ourselves - and are actually quite happy with it. We hope that everything runs smoothly, if something doesn't work so smoothly, please be understanding and let us know so that we can fix it straight away
