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