This week on Forge Side Chat the hosers sit down with Robert Dent, the man behind Axcadmy.

Axcadmy is a business in the city of Toronto Ontario that runs classes on ax making for people of all skill levels. As young as 13 years old can attend a class and in one day learn the techniques needed to make an ax. Not only do they get to learn how to make an ax but they get to walk away with that very ax they learnt on.

With the assistance of @tobydruce the workshop has developed into an amazing business for Rob and we have all the details in the show!

We had a ton of shout outs this week with some familiar names being dropped but some new ones you may not have heard about before.
