Scythe being straightened with a tinman's or saw setting hammer
A little help from a large hammer
Starting again
Shaping a horse shoe
Hammer raised
At the ready
Making a horse shoe
Hot work
A job well done
Hammer at the ready
Team work at the forge
Faster than the camera.
With hammer at the ready
Straightening a scythe blade
Scythe straightening tools
Too fast to photograph.
The horse shoe progressing
Cooling down
