Scythe being straightened with a tinman's or saw setting hammer
Hammer at the ready
Scythe straightening tools
Working the bellows
Happy hammering
With hammer at the ready
A little help from a large hammer
Two hammers are better than one
Shaping a horse shoe
There's a hammer there somewhere
Cooling down
The scythe tools
Hot work
Faster than the camera.
Starting again
Making a horse shoe
Scythe straightening
Hammer raised
Scythe straightening
The big hammer at the ready
Happy at the bellows
Another shoe on the way
The horse shoe progressing
