Scott Riedy, Blacksmith

Scott began metal working at the age of 13 as a hobby, which he continued for the next six years. After that, he started as a full time blacksmith at Stone County Ironworks in Mountain View, Arkansas. To expand his skills, Scott began working for other blacksmiths throughout Arkansas.  Gaining experience and technique, Scott became the head Blacksmith at the Ozark Folk Center.  Scott not only taught classes and performed demonstrations, but also sold his metal work creations.

Later Scott opened Heritage Blacksmith Shop in Mountain View, Arkansas.  There he continued to teach and build metal work products that were sold to the public and various state parks.  Scott has always had a  home shop, where he forges, teach classes, and sells fine metal work.
