Chris Bunting in Pennsylvania

At the first clinic; only 6, since it was a personal consult hammer-in with individual instruction from Chris.
I cooked for the men a full Thanksgiving turkey dinner with all the fixings .

After dinner........Well...............
then I swaged out a bar shoe, and BROKE in half George's anvil wooden stump in front of everyone!!!! everything crashed on the ground but I did finally finished the bar shoe with George's other anvil stand.

This is what Chris had look forward too; when giving his first clinic in America!!!
