Scythe being straightened with a tinman's or saw setting hammer
Another shoe on the way
The scythe tools
Hot work
Cooling down
A job well done
Scythe straightening tools
Faster than the camera.
At the ready
The big hammer at the ready
Shaping a horse shoe
Team work at the forge
Happy hammering
Happy at the bellows
A hot job working the bellows
Scythe straightening
There's a hammer there somewhere
With hammer at the ready
Too fast to photograph.
Hammer raised
Making a horse shoe
