Rabbi Halpern safrut ink making Class
Rabbi Halpern who is a trained sofer taught the students in his class how to make ink for writing Mezuzot, Tefillin, and Sifrei Torah. Students got to crush gall nuts, add coal and other ingredients and watch them boil on the burner. When it was ready, each student got to practice writing with a quill using their very own vial of precious ink!
