So, I wanna build a forge.

A place where people who like to make metal red hot and soft can come and beat their metal into the shapes they require, and experiment and learn.  I want to make it a place where blacksmithying demonstrations can safely be conducted whilst people sit and watch in comfort.   I want to build it so that people will come to Crossroads not just for the pretty Hall, but because there are things happening there.  I want to build it from Stone, and local wood.  I want to give it a roof that can collect water and fill a quenching drum.  I want it to have everything that I believe a small medieval forge would have, and I want it to cater for everyone who may be willing to use it.

I have now become a Member of Crossroads, and have put together my proposal for the forge, I still need to whip up a quick drawing so that the powers that be can see what I would like to build, but the rest of the proposal is done.  Once I have approval from the board, I shall make the plans public here so as to encourage people to encourage success in the project.  Yay for projects.  Yay for doing things…  yay for stuff.
