Blacksmith Demonstration: One of the most important trades of the Colonial era.

Surgeon Station: The tools of a field surgeon are put to use with explanations of why things were done the way they were.

Tinsmith: Create your own piece of tinsmith art, in the same fashion as the lantern used during Paul Revere's famous ride.
