Bi-Metallic Bowl Art

with

Dave Koenig
at Balcones Forge
in Marble Falls

Dave Koenig was the featured demonstrator at the Balcones Forge Summer Demo hosted by John Crouchet at his shop near Marble Falls. Over 50 smiths attended from all over Texas and were welcomed with great hospitality to a uniquely green Hill Country vista.

Dave was recently featured in ABANA's Hammers Blow publication with the instructional handout he provided for our Feburary meeting Bowling with the Smiths. Click Raising a Bowl, Raising Awareness for a reprint.

Photos of the demo during late afternoon were taken by Richard Boswell. Please click each to enlarge.....
