Blacksmith Demonstration - Wilson County Fair - Lebanon, Tennessee

            One of the exhibits at the Wilson County Fair was a demonstration in blacksmithing. This specific demonstration was a gentleman making a ball pein hammer head and, at this point, he was splitting open the center to create a hole for the handle. I could have stood and watched this for longer than everyone else was willing but was able to stay long enough to snap a few decent photos of this amazing, old world craft. If you ever get the chance to watch this, take it...it will be worth your time!!
