Scythe being straightened with a tinman's or saw setting hammer
A little help from a large hammer
Two hammers are better than one
Cooling down
Making a horse shoe
Scythe straightening tools
A hot job working the bellows
At the ready
Straightening a scythe blade
Faster than the camera.
The big hammer at the ready
Happy hammering
Team work at the forge
Working the bellows
Scythe straightening
Shaping a horse shoe
A job well done
With hammer at the ready
Hammer raised
