Handrail By Blacksmith Jerry Schroeder
There is design, there is power, there is utility, there is character and, there is strength in Jerry's art. I love my handrail. It is unique and yet practical. As located at the entrance to my front porch, it clearly sets the tone for my visitors stating this house owner knows and appreciates art. As one has put it: "your home is an art gallery."

Facts about Blacksmiths and Blacksmithing
A blacksmith is a metalsmith who creates objects from wrought iron or steel by forging the metal, using tools to hammer, bend, and cut . Blacksmiths produce objects such as artful gates, grilles, railings, light fixtures, furniture, sculpture, tools, agricultural implements, decorative and religious items, cooking utensils and weapons.
While there are many people who work with metal such as farriers, wheelwrights, and armorers, the blacksmith had a general knowledge of how to make and repair many things, from the most complex of weapons and armor to simple things like nails or lengths of chain.
Blacksmiths work by heating pieces of wrought iron or steel until the metal becomes soft enough for shaping with hand tools, such as a hammer, anvil and chisel. Heating generally takes place in a forge fueled by propane, natural gas, coal, charcoal, coke or oil.
