Anvil Works

Hedgesville, WV

Anvil Works' studio is a versatile workshop for art metal projects. It was designed and built by Lee Badger in 1998 to be a creative space for his work as a metal designer and artist-blacksmith for home and garden. The focus is on hot-worked metal, primarily iron and steel, but non-ferrous metals and sheet metals are often included in the variety of work. Many different types of artistic shaping, bending, twisting, forming, joining and hammering can be accomplished here.
