EP 121 Shane Kribernegg of Friday Forge

Forge Side Chat

Episode 121 with Shane Kribernegg of Friday Forge in Twin Lakes, BC, Canada Welcome back to the Great White North ladies and gents. This week I (Lando) sat down with Shane to hear about how his journey into blacksmithing began at a very early age, but it took some push to get him interested in what his dad had already been doing for years. Shane's father comes from a life of farrier work and at one point in life Shane finally faced the hard truth that the passion for metal work ran in his blood too. This episode was originally recorded over a month ago. Technical issues caused a large portion of the files to be lost and thus we had to sit down again which was just a couple weeks ago now. In this episode you will hear about Shane's big new purchase for his big new shop! There were some difficulties in getting the new shop going but it's up now and looking mint. Shane is no stranger to blacksmithing outside of farrier work as well. You will hear about how he has spent some time learning from some really great smiths such as Shawn Cunningham and Jeri Sparshu as well as John Williams! Sit back, relax and enjoy. Or maybe grind and smash and enjoy. What ever you're doing I hope you enjoy this one and all others. Cheers and good day eh. ABANA 50TH ANNIVERSARY!! Mark the calendar!!! June 6-9th 2024!!
