Whiskey River Forge makes ornamental and functional ironwork and can repair or refurbish older ironwork of nearly any sort.
Blacksmith and metal artist Otto Bacon can create for you a single candle holder, or an elaborate wrought iron gate. Recycled materials are a specialty.
Whiskey River Forge's facilities include a complete blacksmith, welding, and machine shop.
The shop is located in Michigan's beautiful Eastern Upper Peninsula on the bank of the Waiska (Whiskey) River.
You can e-mail me at bacono(AT)up.net and tell me what kind of ironwork you need.
