WALLER-IN 2026: AUCTION STILL IN PROGRESS!

The in-person part of WALLER-IN 2026 is a wrap (we'll post more about that soon), but the AUCTION for items made at the event or donated by demonstrators and friends is still LIVE. 

 

For most items, the AUCTION ENDS TOMORROW (3/28/2026) at 8 pm Eastern Standard Time. The exception is the Gunstock War Club by Jacob King. He is still working on that item so we'll provide an update concerning the war club once available. 

All items can be viewed by going to https://GHFWallerIn2026.auctria.events and then clicking the AUCTION BUTTON, but you must be registered with Auctria to bid. Here's some items that are still available (i.e. haven't been claimed via the BUY IT NOW option).

Thank you again to everyone who came to the event or helped by supporting it from afar. Monetary donations go directly into our Scholarship Fund to help prospective smiths offset the cost of taking classes at Guinea Hog Forge. We'll be announcing our first recipient very soon!

 

Proceeds from Auction Purchases are split between the maker & Guinea Hog Forge. The typical split is 80% to the maker: 20% to GHF (after credit card fees & taxes), but some of our makers donated items in full or have chosen to take a lesser percentage. We are super grateful to all the makers and demonstrators. Without them & you, this event couldn't happen. 

 

Hope to see you at next year's Waller-In! 

We'll start posting videos from this year's event on social media and YouTube soon.

Lydia & Scott McGhee
