Blacksmith

Brandon is proud to be a member of the Central States Metal Artisans (CSMA), a community that thrives on the mantra "United by the Anvil, Driven by the Hammer." CSMA isn't just a club; it's a collective of artisans devoted to the age-old art of blacksmithing. Whether hosting open shops, sharing knowledge, or inviting guest experts for demonstrations, the aim is to forge ahead into new possibilities—literally and figuratively.

Being part of this vibrant community allows Brandon to not only perfect his craft but also to contribute to a larger movement that is keeping the tradition of blacksmithing alive and relevant. If you're interested in the intersection of history, craftsmanship, and raw, tactile art, I invite you to explore more about CSMA and perhaps even pick up a hammer yourself.
