Cowboy silver engraving

Brett Bronson of White Owl, who is an accomplished blacksmith and has started making bits and spurs, wanted to develop his skills in decorative silverwork and engraving to improve the quality of his work. He apprenticed with master silversmith Hugh Weaver of Sheridan, Wyoming, to learns techniques and designs that he can use in his own work. The apprenticeship grant also allowed him to purchase tools and equipment so he could set up his own shop.
