Hey Dave,
I met Christoph last year at that school. He demonstrated making a couple of integrals. He blew us all away with his knowledge and skills. You couldn't go wrong studying with him. The school is sweet too. They have a nice setup, equipment and tools. They have a handful of new, clean dorm rooms too.
Have fun and keep us posted. We want day by day postings complete with photos.
All the best, Phil
PS - I notice in the course description, it says Christoph does all his forging by hand. He did use one of the power hammers in the demo I saw at the ABS hammer-in last year there. I don't know what you should expect in that regards for the course.
