It was a busy day on Sunday at the Southwest Rail and Heritage Centre especially in the blacksmiths workshop.
I managed to spend a couple of hours watching the skills on display of the Boyanup Foundation Blacksmiths group.

I took along my recently acquired leg vice hoping to get some advice on repairing it and before I new it I had an offer to straighten it out and make a new spring!

See pics below of master blacksmith Malcolm Paine working on the leg and spring.

Thank you to Malcolm and the rest of the members for their help. It is much appreciated.
